abstract="The Modern Slavery Act (2015) was a symbol of the UK's commitment to combatting exploitation and human trafficking. Yet the Act offers little help to people who have been trafficked to, or in, the UK to recover and build a new life.   A recent report of the National Audit Office on public spending for reducing modern slavery states that although the UK has in place an identification and support system (the National Referral Mechanism, or NRM),1 'The Home Office has no assurance that victims are not trafficked again, potentially undermining the support given through the NRM'.   The UK government does not plan or enable needs-based support for trafficked people to rebuild their lives, or even collect any data on outcomes for trafficked people, including those who have been through its identification and support systems. On the contrary, its reluctance to guarantee even a year-long recovery period undermines those individuals' attempts to build a life after trafficking.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
