37. Mr. Prentice

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what progress has been made in the study of the problems of introducing a scheme for compensating the victims of crimes of violence; and whether he will introduce legislation on this matter in the next Session of Parliament.

Mr. Brooke

I am studying this question: I am not yet ready to make a statement.
