reg 231 Information, referral to victim support services and needs assessments
Where the victim is a victim of the most serious crime, a persistently targeted victim, or vulnerable or intimidated victim, the Commanding Officer must note any Special Investigation Measures (see paragraphs 49 to 52 of this Code) identified as appropriate in the needs assessment, or requested by the victim. The Commanding Officer must either provide those Special Investigation Measures, or, if the Commanding Officer is unable to provide any of those Special Investigation Measures, then they must pass the case to the Service Police for investigation unless operational or practical constraints make this impossible, or where there is an urgent need to interview the victim and failure to do so could harm the victim or another person or could prejudice the course of proceedings.
