Recommendation 75
75
Deferred
Paragraph: 221
Collect, analyse, and publish data on reasons individuals refuse National Referral Mechanism entry.
Recommendation
There has been a troubling and unwelcome rise in the number of adults choosing not to enter the National Referral Mechanism, who may be at risk of further exploitation. It is unclear why the Home Office does not collect, analyse, and publish data on why individuals are refusing to consent to enter the NRM. We recommend that the Home Office corrects this deficiency immediately.
