Recommendation 6:
We believe the victim service program…should be improved to maximize the voluntary cooperation of the victim in the trial process by implementing the following recommendations: Facilitate immediate victim referrals from police or Crown, and enhance communication and cooperation among these service providers in a manner which protects the privacy of the victim.

We need a national conference on the issue of data collection.
