Issue social protection
19.02.2011
By:

Are you committed?

1. To combat the crime of trafficking of persons into Ireland.

2. To change the system so that victims of the crime of trafficking are treated within the Dept. of Justice and not perceived primarily as a problem of Immigration.

3. To ensure free legal advice is provided in a language understood by the victim.

4. To ensure social assistance is provided in the areas of housing, education, health, counselling without the condition of the willingness of a victim to act as a State witness in a criminal trial

5. To have Ireland enact legislation that criminalises the purchase of sex, which fuels sexual exploitation and increases human trafficking – similar to the Swedish legislation.

Hi

You can view our Manifesto here [

issues(p27)

I am committed to:

  • Introduce legislation which follows the Swedish model in making it illegal for a man to buy sex.
  • Introduce legislation which criminalises human trafficking.
  • Legislate to ensure the protection of victims of trafficking.
  • Support awareness campaigns of human trafficking.
  • Explore the possibility of introducing a multi-agency centre to provide a central point for the development of expertise and cooperation in relation to the trafficking of human beings similar to the the United Kingdom Human Trafficking Centre [UKHTC]
