Original motion text
That this House notes that a recent survey by the Channel 4 television programme Dispatches showed that acquaintance rape is just as violent as stranger rape but that four months' monitoring of rape cases at the Old Bailey showed that convictions in cases of acquaintance rape were only one-third of those in an equal number of cases of stranger rape; and considers that the fault lies in current court procedures and, in particular, judges' discretion to allow the defence to attempt to discredit the complainant by intrusive questioning about the complainant's life style, dress or sexual history and the absence of independent legal representation for complainants.
