Victims, Witnesses and Justice Reform (Scotland) Bill
A Legislative Impact Assessment has been carried out in respect of the Bill. Whilst there will likely be extensive legal input and associated cost required on several aspects of the Bill, including consequences and implications for existing legislation provision, it is evident that the highest impact will be the work required to become a trauma-informed and responsive organisation as outlined in part 2 of the Bill.
The journey towards this cultural transformation will need Executive Leadership, investment, collaboration, training and planning.
