This bill mandates the Victims of Crime Compensation Office (VCCO) to produce an annual report detailing compensation awarded to victims of crime. The report will include comprehensive information such as the number of applications for compensation, the number of applications granted and denied along with the reasons for these decisions, the total amount of awards, demographic data related to the awards, the services for which the awards were provided, and the funding received by the office. The Attorney General will oversee the report's preparation, which must be completed within six months after the end of the fiscal year and submitted to both the Governor and the Legislature.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that the report will be published on the official website of the Department of Law and Public Safety, ensuring transparency and accessibility of the information to the public. This legislation codifies the existing practice of the VCCO, reinforcing the importance of accountability in the compensation process for victims of crime.
