Performance management and case outcomes, Case OutcomesIntroduction Under Article 2 of the European Convention on Human Rights, the right to life, there is a duty on the state to carry out a proper investigation where a death occurs and to involve the families to the extent necessary to safeguard their legitimate interests. The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) has policies to support victims and bereaved families and the duty to provide an enhanced level of service is required under the Victim’s Code. Nothing within this guidance affects these rights and responsibilities.
