<p> </p><p>Once they receive a positive Reasonable Grounds decision, potential victims
of <br>trafficking are entitled to a minimum of 45 days' care and support which can
<br>continue up to the point they receive a positive Conclusive Grounds decision,
<br>whichever is the later. Article 12 of the European Convention on Action <br>against
Trafficking in Human Beings requires the UK to provide a minimum of 30 <br>days' support
for victims of human trafficking. The current UK Government <br>policy goes further
than the European Convention on Action against Trafficking <br>obligations by providing
a minimum of 45 days support once a Reasonable Grounds <br>decision is made.<br><br>Care
and support for victims, once they receive a positive Conclusive Grounds <br>decision,
is being considered as part of the ongoing review of the National <br>Referral Mechanism
and as part of the re-tender of the Government's care <br>contract for adult victims
of human trafficking.</p><p> </p>
