Yesterday the Government released a report that found rape and sexual assault victims who pre-record their evidence are more likely to have a better experience of the court process. The measure, which has been available in all crown courts in England and Wales since September last year, has made the experience less intimidating for victims and survivors since they do not have to face their alleged attackers in the full glare of a courtroom.
As much as I welcome this move by the Government, more needs to be done — and now.
