Modern Slavery Bill

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

If the commissioner is to help increase prosecutions, they need to help to provide witnesses, who are the evidence givers in those prosecutions. I therefore support the hon. Member for Oxford West and Abingdon (Nicola Blackwood) in her plea to give the commissioner some responsibility for victims, which will assist the Home Secretary greatly in her ambition to increase the number of prosecutions.
