<p>The Government is committed to preventing further exploitation of vulnerable individuals
who have already been victims of trafficking. Through The Salvation Army adult victim
care contract in England and Wales, all potential victims who are referred into the
National Referral Mechanism are provided with specialised support for a minimum period
of 45 days, in excess of our international obligations. This includes work with victims
to plan how they can move on safely to integrate into UK society or to return to their
home country, and building resilience to avoid re-trafficking for child victims. We
are currently trialling specialist child trafficking advocates who will provide dedicated
support and guidance, including promoting the child’s safety and wellbeing, particularly
in light of the risk of children going missing and being re-trafficked.</p><p>Implementing
the Modern Slavery Strategy and the Modern Slavery Act 2015 will enhance the law enforcement
response to trafficking, and help protect individuals from re-trafficking by stopping
those who are responsible from exploiting further victims.</p>
