BODY SHOP ANTI-HUMAN TRAFFICKING CAMPAIGN

That this House congratulates The Body Shop and ECPAT on their campaign to stop sex trafficking of children and young people; notes with concern that the trafficking of humans is a growing trade that exists in countries across the world; further notes that approximately 360 children are trafficked into and within the UK every year; urges the Government to opt in to the EU directive on Trafficking in Human Beings that would require child victims to receive a special representative in court proceedings when their parents cannot represent them; and calls on the Government to implement policy and legislation to support victims of trafficking in rebuilding their lives.
