This is a summary of responses to the public consultation undertaken by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) on revisions to the guidance on Deception as to gender (now titled “Deception as to sex”), which is contained in chapter 6 (Consent) of the CPS guidance on Rape and Sexual Offences (RASSO).
Introduction: a national entitlement for adult victims of rape and serious sexual offences
Rape and serious sexual offences are devastating crimes, and providing evidence and being cross-examined in these cases can be intimidating and retraumatising for victims. For many victims the criminal justice process is unfamiliar, long and complex, and this can result in reluctance to continue or withdrawal from the process entirely.

Overview and aims
As part of a programme of work on victim feedback loops, the CPS’ Research Team conducted research which explored the views and experiences of individuals who had designed and implemented a range of service user feedback mechanisms. Feedback mechanisms allow users to report on their experiences of a service, helping to provide insight into how effective services are and how they can be improved.
