Illegal Migration Bill

Proceeding contribution from Robert Buckland (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 13 March 2023. It occurred during Debate on bills on Illegal Migration Bill.

I am grateful to my right hon. Friend for mentioning human trafficking. I conducted a Court of Appeal case on an unduly lenient sentence, and we got the sentence increased. It is vital that everybody understands the difference between human trafficking and people smuggling. If we do not get such basic terms right, how on earth will we get the policy right?
