Achieving best evidence in child abuse cases - a joint inspection

Published on: 18 December 2014

Summary

This report sets out the findings from our inspection of both the police service’s adherence to the Achieving Best Evidence (ABE) Guidance and Crown Prosecution Service’s evidential use of the resultant ABE recorded interview. It also determines whether the guidance is providing children who have been raped and sexually exploited with the means of giving their best evidence, leading to a successful outcome.
