LIBE and FEMM committees have worked on a draft report that assesses the implementation of the Directive in order to analyse to which extent it brings real change for victims and to propose recommendations for a more effective support of victims. FEMM co-rapporteur is Ms Angelika Mlinar (ALDE, Austria) and LIBE co-rapporteur is Ms Teresa Jiménez-Becerril (EPP, Spain). The draft report was adopted by 42 votes in favour to 4 vote against with 2 abstentions.
