That is amazing. When Ms Casey spoke about training earlier, she cited an example of where training occurred in a community and the confidence of victims or possible victims improved dramatically as a result. I think she said that the knowledge of people in general, rather than victims, improved. Their propensity to report crime increased as a result. Could she talk about the kind of training that is provided and how it works? Who does it? Where does it work? What is involved in it? What would Ms Casey like to see happening in order to expand or develop this further?
