A new private members bill
Hey friends
Hope your doing great!
A new private members bill to assist victims of Human Trafficking is due to have its second reading debate in the House of Lords on 25th November.
The bill, Human Trafficking (Further Provisions and Support for Victims) Bill (covering the UK) has been tabled by Lord McColl of Dulwich. The bill is in line with the EU Directive on Human Trafficking but has more robust provisions e.g. in respect of non prosecution of victims of human trafficking.
The bill can be found as below:

We would be grateful if you would contact the Peers (particularly any Peers that you know) asking them to attend the second reading debate and support the bill. A list of arguments in favour of the bill along with a list of peers can be found at:
