The question was asked at the request of Line Barfod (The Unity List – the Red-Green Alliance). Lars Barfoed Carsten Kristian Vollmer Slotsholmsgade 10 1216 Copenhagen K. Telephone 7226 8400 Fax 3393 3510 www.justitsministeriet.dk [email protected] Question no. 604 (ordinary part) from the Danish Parliament's Legal Affairs Committee: “What training are judges, solicitors, public prosecutors, the police force and the immigration authorities given to enable them to identify and help victims of human trafficking in the best possible manner?” Answer: In order to answer this question, the Ministry of Justice obtained statements from the Danish Court Administration, the National Commission of the Danish Police, the Director of Public Prosecutions and the Ministry of Refugee, Immigration and Integration Affairs. The Danish Court Administration provided the following information: “Judges and other practising lawyers receive training in “handling” injured parties, including the victims of human trafficking in order to enable them to identify and help victims of criminality in general. This training forms part of the ordinary course of education and further education for judges and other practising lawyers. The Danish Court Administration can also inform you that the complexity of cases involving human trafficking was most recently reviewed and discussed in November 2010 at the Judicial Training Centre (Domstolsakademiet), which provides further education for judges and practising lawyers.

  • The Nest-STOP Trafficking's Work Combating Trafficking in Women in Denmark
    The Nest-STOP Trafficking’s Work Combating Trafficking in Women in Denmark Background Since 1990 we have witnessed a sharp increase in the number of women in prostitution in Denmark, rising from an estimated 1,700 in 1990, to at least 4,270 in 2006. At the same time we have seen an increase in the number of foreign women on the street and in the approximately 700 brothels and massage parlours in Denmark. It is clear that there are women in Denmark who have been trafficked. It is estimated that three quarters of the women in prostitution on the streets of Vesterbro in Copenhagen are foreign, and that at least half of the women in prostitution in brothels are foreign. Prostitution is not illegal in Denmark, but it is not considered an occupation. Neither is it illegal to purchase prostitution services in Denmark, though it is illegal - and punishable - to purchase prostitution from young persons under the age of 18. Foreign women in prostitution in Denmark are therefore not arrested by the police for prostitution, but rather for earning money without a valid work permit, or for residing in the country illegally. In this way women are often deported for working illegally, or for illegal residence, with very short notice. Women who are victims of trafficking are therefore often treated as criminals and deported, with no consideration for their situation, other than the offer of a 15 day delay of their deportation date. Who is RSK? Reden-STOP Kvindehandel (The Nest-STOP Trafficking in Women) is a private institution under the YMCA´s Social Work.
