Witnesses: Video Recordings
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what assessment he has made of the take up of use of section 28 video evidence in rape trials in England and Wales.
- Answer
-
The latest Criminal Justice System Delivery Data Dashboard, which the Government publishes quarterly, shows that 57 witnesses gave evidence via s.28 in a case with at least one adult rape offence between January and March 2022.
We are working with partners to ensure the rollout of Section 28 is a success and will continue to monitor the rollout of Section 28.
