The UK supported the introduction of the 2014 Protocol to the Forced Labour Convention, and is undertaking a wide range of activity to tackle forced labour, as well as other forms of modern slavery. We are committed to ratifying the Protocol, which we consider the UK already meets, and will do so following consultation with other Departments and the Devolved Administrations.
