Independent advocates for trafficked children
Section 48 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 (MSA) provides that the Secretary of State should make arrangements to enable independent child trafficking advocates to represent and support children who there are reasonable grounds for believing may be the victims of human trafficking. The section is not yet in force, with the exception of subsection (7), which requires the Secretary of State to publish a report to Parliament on the steps she proposes to take in relation to the introduction of independent advocates.
