They focus on the shared issues revealed within the different approaches adopted by the two services, highlighting challenges for service deliverers. They conclude that while there is broad satisfaction with the Probation Service's work with victims, greater clarity is needed with regard to several issues, including the fundamental purpose of victim contact work and the limitations of the service which can be offered. vV.47,n.2dJune 2000pp.101-107tProbation JournalcLondon aVÍTIMA aENTERKINbJill  aCRAWFORDbAdam jP.105
