Homicide: Victim Support Schemes
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what financial contribution her Department has made to the Victim Support Homicide Service in each of the last three financial years.
Answered by Mr Hamish Falconer
The Government is committed to ensuring that families bereaved by homicide abroad receive the support they need. As part of this, the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office provides a contribution towards the overall £5.5 million funding of the National Homicide Service, proportionate to the number of bereaved families supported by the service whose loved ones are victims of homicide overseas.
