question text	To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, with reference to the Answer of 4 February 2014 to Question 902388, how many victims of human trafficking received pre-trial therapy and counselling in accordance with the victims' code service in each of the last three years; what the cost to the public purse was of such therapy; and if she will make a statement.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/10/2014 answer text <p>The Government funds the Adult Human Trafficking Care and Co-ordination contract which ensures that potential victims of trafficking receive <br>appropriate care and support once they have been identified. As part of this contract and in compliance with our international obligations (Council of Europe Convention and the EU Directive on Trafficking in Human Beings), the Home Office has made it a core requirement for the Contractor to provide access to a range of specialist services, including therapy and counselling, to victims of trafficking who request or require it. <br><br>Such services are not necessarily related to pre-trial circumstances. Most victims of trafficking who are assisting the police are usually called to trial after they have left the service. As a result, pre-trial therapy and counselling would be received from other sources and not under the contract. For this reason, the Home Office does not collect the requested information.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 21/10/2014 16:09:19 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley previous answer version 22515 answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley
