Conclusion
Clause 62 should be amended so that it does not apply to child victims of slavery or human trafficking, in order to comply with the UNCRC. Such an amendment would also go some way to addressing concerns about the application of clause 62 to children exploited by non-state armed groups. (Paragraph 79) Support for victims of slavery and human trafficking
