Part of the reason I am asking the question is that only now, in a belated fashion and following a European Union directive, is the DPP prepared to provide any reasons for not prosecuting particular cases or engaging with families of victims or people who are affected by a given decision. I gather that is still not up and running, but it is the first direct interface with people affected by decisions the office takes.
