Meeting of the Parliament 09 December 2015
I would be happy to discuss that further with the cross-party group. We have made a significant commitment in terms of our support to survivors, and I have just set out a significant increase in funding. I can commit to meeting Ms Mitchell to discuss that further—I would be very happy to do that. That could be a way of moving forward.
The Government’s vision is that survivors should have equal access to integrated care, support and treatment resources and services to reduce the impact of the inequalities and disadvantage that they have experienced as a result of abuse. That is why we will continue to develop and invest in the capacity and capability of current services. We will support new approaches for integrating individual needs-based and outcome-focused support and care, which enables survivors to achieve their own personal outcome goals. Survivors have told us that that is what they want; that is what we will seek to deliver.
