Read our concerns about changes that will weaken the protections against detention afforded to potential victims of trafficking.
We are concerned that the changes brought into force by SI 2021/184 will weaken the protections against detention afforded to potential victims of trafficking (PVoTs) – a group recognised by the government as being particularly vulnerable to suffering harm in detention.
Read the evidence we jointly compiled with six organisations with expertise on immigration detention and/or human trafficking - After Exploitation, Anti-Slavery International, Focus on Labour Exploitation, Freedom from Torture, the Helen Bamber Foundation and Medical Justice.
