Commission proposes to strengthen the rights of victims of crime across the EU
Today’s initiative adopted by the European Commission aims to strengthen the rights of victims of crime across the European Union so that they receive support, access information, seek justice and obtain compensation.
The proposed update of the existing Directive establishes minimum rules that go beyond those adopted in 2012, effectively addressing the evolving needs of our society, developments in technology and in justice.
The reform of the existing Directive includes the following elements:
– Ensuring that victims are well informed of their rights and provided with the necessary resources to report a crime;
– Enhancing safety measures tailored to the specific needs of vulnerable victims;
– Providing access to specialised support services;
– Facilitating access to justice;
– Ensuring effective access to compensation.

An off-the-record technical briefing (for accredited journalists only) will take place at 11:30 CEST.
