FUNDING OF SERVICES FOR ROAD CRASH VICTIMS

That this House notes with concern the Home Office decision to cease in 2007 funding the Brakecare Bereavement Pack, which provides advice for bereaved families and friends following a death on the road; further notes that additional resources need to be made available to fund a national helpline for road crash victims, a face-to-face support service and training for people working with road crash victims; further notes that the Victims Fund, announced on 12th January 2004, is yet to result in any funds for road crash victims; and therefore calls upon the Government to examine other options for funding services to road crash victims, including a ??1 levy on vehicle insurance premiums to provide services for the victims of road crashes.
