Victims and Prisoners Bill

Proceeding contribution from Stella Creasy (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 15 May 2023. It occurred during Debate on bills on Victims and Prisoners Bill.

The Secretary of State is making a powerful case on the role of a public advocate, which many of us support. We recognise that there may be more than one victim when traumatic events happen, so does he accept that it is right that the Bill also deals with strengthening support? In my community, a 16-year-old boy was murdered 10 days ago. The entire school community is traumatised. Getting them support, and recognising that his friends, as well as his family, are victims in this instance, is critical. Will he meet me and other campaigners to discuss that issue?
