I agree with my noble friend Lord Ramsbotham that it would be better to leave out the words, ""who are in the United Kingdom"."
However, the noble Baroness, Lady Hanham, has made a very important point about transit. In the past year or two there have been more suspicions and perhaps some actual proof of children being trafficked into or through Britain for purposes of benefit fraud. This is a fairly new kind of trafficking, which I ask the Government to take very seriously.
