The IDMG’s 2015 report will be published shortly and will provide a detailed assessment of the scale and nature of the threat, what the Government has done to respond and our priorities for future work. In addition, the Independent Anti-Slavery Commissioner will each year publish a report on his work and on progress being made on tackling modern slavery. As part of our wider strategy, the Government is committed to strengthening the way in which we identify and refer potential victims of trafficking into the National Referral Mechanism. As part of this, the Home Office is piloting reforms to the National Referral Mechanism in West Yorkshire and the South West.</p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 21/10/2015 15:53:25 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley

Once a person is detained their continued detention remains under review by the Home Office at least at monthly intervals, and earlier in response to any change of circumstances that might have a material effect on their detention.</p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 14/10/2015 16:38:28 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley
