Rape victims still being 'failed' two years after action promised
By June Kelly and Judith BurnsBBC News
Two years after the for England and Wales, victims are still being failed, say women's groups.
Charge rates are low, support services underfunded and, In Court , cases face, says their report.
The review promised to put more rapists behind bars but " we have barely scratched The Surface " says The End Violence Against Women Coalition.
The government said it was on track to meet The Rape review ambitions.
The Centre for Women's Justice, End Violence Against Women Coalition, Rape Crisis England and Wales, and black feminist organisation Imkaan produced The Report to coincide with The Second anniversary of the government's rape review.
The 2021 review came as women's groups said rape had been effectively decriminalised after
The review pledged to:
Two years on, women's groups acknowledge some " green shoots" of positive change, including:
However, The Show that between April and December 2022 there were about 50,000 rape offences recorded by police in England and Wales.
Of these offences, about 900, amounting to fewer than 2%, have So Far resulted in a charge or court summons.
Of the bulk of the cases, More Than 20,000 are still being investigated - while another 20,000 have had to close because The Victim has withdrawn from legal proceedings.
" After two years of promises and commitments we have barely scratched The Surface to improve support for victims of rape, let alone preventing it in the First Place , " said Andrea Simon, director of The End Violence Against Women Coalition
Harriet Wistrich, director of the Centre for Women's Justice, says while there has been some improvement to charging levels, they are nowhere near those before 2016, " meaning only a small minority of those who report rape will see their cases prosecuted".
She says The Key problem now lies with a failure of police to refer cases to The Crown Prosecution Service or get early advice.
" Those that report rape are still facing disproportionate requests for personal data which impacts directly on the attrition rate, " adds Ms Wistrich.
'Disappointing'Imkaan, which focuses On Violence against black and minoritised women and girls, says: " It is well established that race and ethnicity remain one of the very biggest gaps in police data.
" It is disappointing that there has been no progress in understanding who does and does not access the Criminal Justice system. "
A Number of police forces in England and Wales have adopted Operation Soteria, a Home Office scheme to increase prosecutions, to investigate rape and serious sexual offences.
The Women 's groups claim Soteria's progress is threatened by uncertainty over future funding.
" The pace of change must Pick Up . Victims and survivors of these highly traumatic crimes deserve justice now, " says Amelia Handy, head of policy and public affairs at Rape Crisis England and Wales.
The government said it is investing £6. 65 million in the policing aspects of Operation Soteria building on The Work of Avon and Somerset Police.
They said the new model of dealing with violence against women and girls by bringing together academics and Frontline Police officers will be available to all police forces in England and Wales from June 2023.
