N2  -  The current state of agency data on victims of serious crime
Accurate and reliable data about service users is an important asset for any social or justice agency. When delivering services to victims of crime, it is also important that justice agencies operating as a sector can reliably analyse and respond to the needs of victims who may be interacting with some or
all of those agencies. 

The results of this research show that, across the government sector, victims come into contact with many agencies, and most of these agencies collect personal data about the victims they come into contact with. In addition, agencies have mechanisms in place to collect a wide range of data types
about victims. The research highlights opportunities to improve the quality of that data, and improve the linkages between different agency data collections.

Non government organisations also have the ability to collect victims’ data, but the combined value of these collections is yet to be realised. (From the report). Record #7544
