The Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA) received 155 complaints in 2010-11 and 91 complaints in 2011-12 where delay was the primary reason for complaint. Throughout this time CICA was dealing with approximately 50,000 active cases, meaning the ratio of complaints to cases is extremely low.
