Rape crisis groups - and survivor - call for change of attitude in courts
Rape crisis groups say a change of attitude is needed in the courts and among the public towards victims of sexual violence and their treatment in trials.
They back comments from Justice Minister Charlie Flanagan who says a "full-blooded defence" is not always appropriate in rape cases and that new protocols are needed governing the kind of evidence that could be used in court and the way complainants' behaviour was assessed.
