Legal and Policy Frameworks
Modern Slavery Act 2015
The Modern Slavery Act received royal assent on 26 March 2015 introducing provisions extending existing support and protection for victims of human trafficking to victims of slavery, servitude and forced and compulsory labour. The Act also gives law enforcement the powers they need to bring the perpetrators to justice.
Link: http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2015/30/contents/enacted
Modern Slavery Strategy
This Strategy sets out the cross-Government approach to tackling modern slavery. The aim of this Strategy is to reduce significantly the prevalence of modern slavery in the UK, as well as to enhance our international response. Modern slavery is often an international crime and requires a strong collaborative international response.

Independent Anti-Slavery Commissioner: Strategic Plan 2015–2017
The UK’s Commissioner Kevin Hyland OBE sets out his commitments in this Plan. The aims are two-fold: to see an increase in the numbers of victims of modern slavery that are identified and referred for appropriate support; and, in tandem, to see an increase in the numbers of prosecutions and convictions of traffickers and slave masters.

Modern Slavery in Supply Chains: an introduction for procurement professionals
The increase in global sourcing opportunities has highlighted some serious issues in procurement practices, in particular the occurrence in the supply chain, unwittingly or otherwise, of modern slavery. From every perspective – reputational, financial and ethical – this is not acceptable in the 21st century.
Link: https://www.cips.org/Documents/About%20CIPS/Ethics/CIPS_ModernSlavery_Broch_WEB.pdf
Tackling Modern Slavery in Supply chains
It is aimed at those who want concrete guidance on how to reduce or eliminate the risk of modern slavery occurring in their supply chains, either as a direct or indirect result of their procurement practices. For the purpose of simplicity, we use the terms company, however this Guide is relevant to all governments and any other organisation wishing to tackle slavery in their supply chains.

Further Guidance
Engaging with Victims/Survivors: Best Practice Guide
Potential victims of trafficking are likely to be extremely vulnerable. They may fear revealing their status or experiences to state authorities and will often mistrust individuals in authority.
Their ability to participate in any future proceedings, for example as a witness, will depend largely on their psychological, emotional and physical health. The National Crime Agency provides a best practice guide to the main issues and sensitivities which frontline practitioners should bear in mind when dealing with potential victims of human trafficking.

Reviews and Reports
Survivor Care and Vulnerable Groups
Effectiveness of Anti-Slavery Training and Survivor Care Pathway
The Welsh Government commissioned Cordis Bright to conduct an evaluation of two key anti-slavery work streams in Wales: anti- slavery training and the survivor care pathway (SCP). The objectives of this research were to:
Assess the implementation of the anti-slavery training and the survivor care pathway; Evaluate to what extent their implementation contributes to the Welsh Government aim to make Wales hostile to slavery and provide the best possible support to survivors; and Identify how they might be strengthened or changed in the future to maximise their effectiveness. See Wales Victim Response Pathway on page 15.
