Keeping you informed

We recognise the importance of being kept up to date on the progress of your enquiry.

We will:

  • Provide you with the details necessary for you to be able to talk to someone about your enquiry. In most cases this will be a reference number and the name and contact details of the person dealing with your enquiry
  • Update you at a mutually convenient time and in an agreed way
  • Take into account any concerns you may have about confidentiality
  • If we have not already been in touch with you, contact you monthly (consistent with the requirement of the Victims’ Code of practice) to let you know whether we are still actively investigating your case and when we will review that decision. If we are not investigating we will explain the reasons for that decision
