On 8th of March, the European Commission launched a consultation related with the ongoing impact assessment for the revision of the Victims' Rights Directive. This consultation should gather the views of the public on possible policy options. In particular, the consultation is aimed at identifying possible ways in which the existing rights of victims, including those already specified in the Directive, could be further strengthened. The revision of the Victims’ Rights Directive is part of the EU Strategy on victims’ rights (2020-2025).
