I voted in favour of this report for a directive on the rights, support and protection of victims of crime. This directive is aimed at defending the rights of victims as effectively as possible, providing victims and their family members with support and protection, and ensuring the protection of victims’ rights in criminal proceedings by providing them with clear information about the status of proceedings and decisions taken in a language they understand. Harmonising these minimum standards would boost EU citizens’ trust in their own judicial system and those of other Member States. I welcome the proposal to adopt a comprehensive European legal framework granting victims, irrespective of their nationality or the place where the crime took place, rights to information, to interpretation and translation, to access victim support services, to avoid contact between victim and offender, the right to protection during questioning in a criminal investigation, and so on. I agree that a unified definition of victim should be provided, which would grant the status of victim not only to the persons harmed by the offence, but also to close family members."@en1
