Proceeding contribution from Caroline Spelman (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 13 December 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Human Trafficking.


Human Trafficking

I am so glad that my hon. Friend has secured this very important debate. Is he aware that in this country the average earnings of a trafficked prostitute for his or her pimp are roughly £100,000 a year? Each trafficked prostitute makes big business. Does my hon. Friend welcome the measures introduced in border countries such as Austria and Italy? At the point of entry, women are given a leaflet in the relevant languages setting out where they can go for help. Such women are often not sure about where to turn. At present, no such thing exists in our own country.
