The Gangmasters Licensing Authority (GLA) do not capture information on exploitation identified purely outside the sector they regulate. Where worker exploitation outside these sectors comes to the attention of the GLA the information is disseminated to appropriate other agencies. If workers contact the GLA to report exploitation they are referred tothe Pay and Worker Rights Helpline operated by the Business, Innovation and Skills Department.<\/p>

The Government is committed to stamping out modern slavery in all its forms including labour exploitation involving agency workers.

The Gangmasters Licensing Authority\u2019s transfer to the Home Office will improve its collaboration with policing agencies for its enforcement activities and maximise the contribution it makes to tackling exploitation of workers.

The Modern Slavery Bill will give law enforcement the tools to tackle modern slavery by increasing the maximum sentence available for offenders to life imprisonment; creating an independent Anti-slavery Commissioner to drive improvements and a better coordinated law enforcement response, working in the interests of victims; strengthening powers to recover the sizeable profits that traffickers and slave masters make from this appalling crime; introducing vital new tools to restrict the activity of criminals who have been convicted of modern slavery offences; and providing powers to enable police and Border Force to act where it is suspected that human trafficking or forced labour is taking place on board vessels at sea.

To complement the Bill, the Government has a comprehensive programme of action to tackle modern slavery. This includes publishing a Modern Slavery Strategy which sets out the Government\u2019s comprehensive approach to tackling modern slavery and the contributions we expect from other Government departments, agencies and partners.<\/p>

In 2013, three Non-Government Organisations were awarded total grant funding of approximately £75,000 by the Home Office to provide training
to a range of local professionals, including those working in local authorities. In January 2013 the Home Office also published guidance for
frontline staff on responding to victims of trafficking, which includes guidance on making referrals to the National Referral Mechanism.

Home Office funding of £420,000 is being provided to Barnardo\u2019s to fund independent child advocacy service trials for a period of twelve months,
September 2014 to September 2015, in 23 local authorities.

The Review of the National Referral Mechanism has considered training and will make recommendations when it reports shortly.<\/p>

The Government does not believe that returning unsuccessful asylum applicants to Sri Lanka impacts on the Office of the UN High Commission for Human Rights ability to investigate human rights abuses in that country. As with any other nationality, all asylum and human rights applications from Sri Lankan nationals are carefully considered on their individual merits in accordance with our international obligations and against the background of the latest available country of origin information from a wide range of well-recognised sources. The Office of the UN High Commission for Human Rights is entitled to speak to any returnees as well as other individuals, if they chose to do so. Likewise, a decision to co-operate or not should be the choice of the person concerned. The fact that they may have made an unsuccessful asylum application in the UK \u2013 or anywhere else \u2013 does not affect this process.<\/p>

More than 95% of people surrendered under an Arrest Warrant over the past five years have been foreign citizens. Since the reforms in section 21A of the Extradition Act 2003 came into force on 21 July 2014 no Arrest Warrants have been refused to be certified by the National Crime Agency for British nationals, and 21 Arrest Warrants have been refused to be certified for foreign nationals on thebasis of proportionality.
Given the estimated cost of £13,000 for processing an Arrest Warrant, savings in excess of £273,000 are likely to have been made to the taxpayer as a result of those refusals.

Since 21 July 2014 no Arrest Warrants have been discharged by the courts under charge and try provisions, as set out in section 156 of the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014 which inserts section 12A into the Extradition Act 2003. Given this provision is a decision for the courts and has only been in force for three months, we expect that the position will change as individual cases are appealed to higher courts.

Since 21 July 2014, 15 British nationals and 287 foreign nationals have been surrendered from the UK to other Member States under an Arrest Warrant. The offences for which British nationals have been surrendered are as follows:

3 x Fraud
2 x Drug trafficking
2 x Grievous Bodily Harm
1 x Murder/Manslaughter
1 x Rape
1 x Serious Sexual Assault
1 x Immigration & Human Trafficking
1 x Evasion of Duty - over £100,000
1 x Fraud - over £100,000

a) The Telegraph Modern Slavery webpages are part of a wider media partnership with the newspaper, which also includes print and online advertorials and digital advertising. The total cost of the partnership with The Daily Telegraph and The Sunday Telegraph is £125,000. We are unable to give costs of constituent parts of the partnership, including the website, because of commercial confidentiality.
b) The Home Office has allocated a communications campaign budget of £2.3 million to raise awareness of Modern Slavery in the UK.
c) The Home Office has spent £44,000 on the Modern Slavery website. The campaign is being evaluated to ascertain its success in raising awareness of modern slavery in a number of ways including: reports of potential incidences of slavery via the new helpline and website; a pre and post campaign survey of 2,000 adults to measure shifts in awareness, attitudes and claimed behaviour; visits and activity on the website; evaluation of advertising reach and engagement.<\/p>

More than 95% of people surrendered under an Arrest Warrant over the past five years have been foreign citizens. Since the reforms in section 21A of the Extradition Act 2003 came into force on 21 July 2014 no Arrest Warrants have been refused to be certified by the National Crime Agency for British nationals, and 21 Arrest Warrants have been refused to be certified for foreign nationals on thebasis of proportionality.
Given the estimated cost of £13,000 for processing an Arrest Warrant, savings in excess of £273,000 are likely to have been made to the taxpayer as a result of those refusals.

Since 21 July 2014 no Arrest Warrants have been discharged by the courts under charge and try provisions, as set out in section 156 of the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014 which inserts section 12A into the Extradition Act 2003. Given this provision is a decision for the courts and has only been in force for three months, we expect that the position will change as individual cases are appealed to higher courts.

Since 21 July 2014, 15 British nationals and 287 foreign nationals have been surrendered from the UK to other Member States under an Arrest Warrant. The offences for which British nationals have been surrendered are as follows:

3 x Fraud
2 x Drug trafficking
2 x Grievous Bodily Harm
1 x Murder/Manslaughter
1 x Rape
1 x Serious Sexual Assault
1 x Immigration & Human Trafficking
1 x Evasion of Duty - over £100,000
1 x Fraud - over £100,000
1 x Assault Occasioning Actual Bodily Harm
1 x Drugs Offences<\/p>
