Pass and implement a Victims' Law guaranteeing victims' rights.

The bill's short title is 'Victims and Prisoners Act 2024' and its long title states it will 'make provision about victims of criminal conduct and others affected by criminal conduct'. The bill has received Royal Assent and is confirmed as an Act. The promise was to 'Pass and implement a Victims' Law guaranteeing victims' rights' with the test being 'Victims' Law enacted'.
