Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, with reference to the foreword to the Draft Modern Slavery Bill, when she plans to start the review of the operation and effectiveness of the National Referral Mechanism; how long that review will take; who will undertake it; and when it will be published.

The review into the operation and effectiveness of the National Referral
Mechanism was announced on 9 April 2014. I have placed a copy of the Terms of
Reference in the Libraries of both Houses.
