Modern Slavery Bill

Proceeding contribution from Bob Stewart (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 July 2014. It occurred during Debate on bills on Modern Slavery Bill.

We have heard that the Salvation Army is a fantastic organisation. I understand that it does not actually look after victims; it sub-lets that to other organisations. I understand from Anthony Steen that it would be a very good thing if our Government, rather than spending £25,000 a year looking after a victim in this country, gave £3,000 to the victim and the Government of the country from where they came to retrain those people and look after them properly. That would be a good use of taxpayers’ money.
