Isabelle, Fiona and Paul are joined live on air by Fiona McCormack, Victims of Crime Commissioner.
The Commissioner’s first systemic inquiry focused on victim participation in the justice system.
As part of this inquiry, the Commissioner has looked at victims’ experiences of participating in the justice system and whether new laws or policies are needed to help victims participate in keeping with what they’re legally entitled to under the Victims’ Charter.

A systemic inquiry into victims’ participation in the justice system by Victoria’s Victims of Crime Commissioner (VOCC) identified a gap between the entitlements of victims “on paper” and their actual experiences.
“When victims report a crime, they expect to play a part in the justice process but in reality, most felt they were silenced and sidelined,” said the commissioner, Fiona McCormack.
