Conclusion
The definitions of “victim of slavery” and “victim of human trafficking” are central to the treatment of victims of slavery and human trafficking, and how the Bill will operate in protecting those victims. At a minimum, the definitions used in legislation should comply with those contained in the relevant international treaties, such as the definition of “human trafficking” in the UN Palermo Protocol.
