New measures to boost UK fight against human traffickingVBCRLF.

] HOME OFFICE 056/2009 1 April 2009 New measures to boost UK fight against human trafficking
Victims of human trafficking will receive better protection and support under new measures coming into force in the UK today.
The Council of Europe Convention Against Trafficking in Human Beings, which takes effect today, creates minimum legal rights for victims and strengthens the UK's ability to catch the criminals that exploit victims of trafficking.
This milestone follows the government's moves to double funding for the UK Human Trafficking Centre to GBP1.7million since 2006/7.
It underlines the government's long-term commitment to tackling this horrific crime and building on the UK's existing efforts to identify and support victims of trafficking and investigate and prosecute traffickers. Adopting the Convention means those measures will become even more robust and consistent.
Key new measures include:
