# The Criminal Justice (Armed Forces Code of Practice for Victims of Crime) Regulations 2015, Paragraph 125: Criminal Cases Review Commission

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

On receiving an application from an offender, the Criminal Cases Review Commission undertakes reviews of convictions and sentences imposed as a result of the offender’s criminal offending. The Commission may refer a conviction or sentence for a fresh appeal if there is some new information or new argument which might mean the conviction is unsafe or the sentence too long. When reviewing a case, the Commission will assess the potential impact on you and decide if you should be notified. The Commission will record the reasons for its decisions as to the form of contact with you and in appropriate cases will notify the Service police if their assistance in contacting you is required.
