Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how much funding from the public purse his Department has allocated to the National Crime Agency's Modern Slavery Human Trafficking Unit.
The National Crime Agency (NCA) allocates its resources flexibly to respond to serious and organised crime including modern slavery and human trafficking.
The NCA’s dedicated Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Unit consists of approximately 55 posts, including the National Referral Mechanism Competent Authority. This Unit draws on assistance from across the NCA to boost the overall resources deployed at any one time against this threat. Therefore, it is not possible to provide an exact figure for the total spend.
