From now on, no one who is assisted by the Forced Marriage Unit - and would previously have been offered a loan - will have to cover the costs of their repatriation. Where possible, the Government will continue to seek to ensure the costs fall on the perpetrators by means of Forced Marriage Protection Orders (FMPOs). The Government has also agreed to ensure that those victims who have outstanding loans will have no further costs fall to them.</p> answering member printed Baroness Williams of Trafford question first answered 22/01/2019 17:21:00 answering member 4311 label Biography information for Baroness Williams of Trafford
