OII Europe highly welcomes the public consultation for the update of the Victims’ Rights Directive 2012/29/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 October 2012, which aims to ensure that victims of crime across the EU are able to access support services, adequate protection and appropriate information concerning their rights.
We would like to take this opportunity to contribute the following recommendations for the revision of the Victims’ Rights Directive to ensure that all victims of crime across the European Union are recognised and treated in a non-discriminatory manner and receive adequate support and protection throughout their interactions with competent authorities and support staff.
