    Brief

    The Ministry of Justice is seeking an external evaluation provider to develop comprehensive evaluation plans and prerequisites for two key victim support services: the National Witness Service and the National Homicide Service. This research commission will implement recommendations from the MoJ's Victims' Support Monitoring & Evaluation (M&E) strategy, which aims to strengthen the evidence base on the effectiveness of victim support interventions. The successful provider will establish evaluation frameworks, methodologies, and foundational requirements that will enable rigorous assessment of both services' impact and outcomes. This work is essential for improving how the MoJ measures and demonstrates the effectiveness of its victim support offerings.
