The Unit included dedicated police and non-police staff and was responsible for the processing, investigation and charging of sexual assault cases and victim care. Perceived benefits of the Unit focused predominantly on the improved quality of investigations and enhanced victim care. Many perceived these improvements to have been facilitated by the creation of dedicated and co-located posts, which allowed for a faster and more focused service. However, despite the perceived benefits of a dedicated team, few of those working in the Unit felt that the team had contributed to improved case outcomes. Details: London: Home Office, 2010. 23p.
