<p>The data in the following tables is management information collated by the Gangmasters
Licensing Authority (GLA). The data relates only to investigations involving the GLA
and prosecutions initiated by the GLA in relation to the offences in the Gangmasters
(Licensing) Act 2004. The investigations data includes GLA-only investigations as
well as those in which GLA have worked jointly with partner agencies (including the
police forces, Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs, National Crime Agency and the UK
Human Trafficking Centre). <br><br>Over time the GLA has undertaken a reduced number
of more complex investigations which focus more effectively on serious and organised
crime. This reflects a targeting and risk-based enforcement approach by the GLA. Only
one GLA-initiated prosecution has ever failed to return a conviction.</p><p> </p><p>
