# The Criminal Justice (Armed Forces Code of Practice for Victims of Crime) Regulations 2015, Paragraph 237: Victim Personal Statement

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

If the case proceeds to a Service Court, the Service Prosecuting Authority must ensure that the Victim Personal Statement and information about the victim’s preference (as above) is served on the court in a timely manner to enable the court to consider whether, and what sections of, the Victim Personal Statement should be read aloud or played, and who will read it. This is unless the case is not proceeding on the charges to which the Victim Personal Statement relates, in which case the Victim Personal Statement remains unused material.
