Responding to the Prime Minister's speech on modern slavery at the International Labour Organization, Leader of the Liberal Democrats, Vince Cable said:
“Critical to tackling modern slavery is scrapping the hostile environment policies the Prime Minister has pursued, which make it far too hard for victims to come forward.
“A central register of businesses’ modern slavery statements is a welcome but too-limited development. The Government must require those statements to include actual measures to deal with slavery – something the law currently doesn’t do.
“And until enforcement agencies are given the resources they need to conduct proactive inspections, far too many people will continue to be exploited.”
