What the report means for members of the public
For victims and families looking for reliable information, an annual report can help explain the work of a public compensation body and provide transparency about its operation. However, the report itself is not a substitute for personalised legal advice or confirmation of eligibility. Anyone considering an application should review the official scheme information and, where necessary, seek independent guidance.
The Department of Justice, Home Affairs and Migration remains the appropriate government source for current information about the Criminal Injuries Compensation Scheme. Other justice bodies, including the Courts Service, An Garda Síochána and the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions, have separate roles within Ireland’s justice system and should not be treated as substitutes for the Tribunal’s official guidance.
