Collaboration
- police should work closely with the Immigration Service, with Social
Services,
with the local authority under Crime and Disorder Partnerships and with any NGOs involved in service delivery to provide
protection to the children;
- police need to utilise existing liaison structures with authorities
in the countries of origin;
- currently, there are no organisations with the sole remit of
protecting and providing support to trafficked victims.
- Although this
may reasonably be considered to be the role of an NGO, police may need
to provide some specific services, including protection to a
trafficked victim during their court case, and after, if the victim
decides to stay in the UK.
- police should work with immigration to help identify victims leaving
the country with their traffickers;
- police need to provide front-line intelligence via local Force
Intelligence Bureaux (FIBs) for onward transmission to NCIS;
- police should work with other agencies trying to ensure that those
who are removed or who choose to return are not re-trafficked; this
should include a risk assessment of the danger to returning victims.
