The Committee notes with regret that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:
Repetition
Articles 1(1), 2(1) and 25 of the Convention. Trafficking in persons. The Committee notes the information provided by the Government concerning various anti-trafficking measures undertaken by the Government during the reporting period, such as various human trafficking training activities for the law enforcement agencies, as well as public sensitization and awareness-raising programmes. It also notes statistical information showing the number of people rescued from human trafficking, as well as the number of investigations and prosecutions. Noting the Government’s indications concerning the difficulties encountered, such as the lack of resources and shelters for victims, as well as the Government’s intention to establish more shelters throughout the country, the Committee requests the Government to continue to describe, in its future reports, measures taken or envisaged to overcome the existing difficulties and, in particular, to enhance the efficiency of the law enforcement mechanism. Please continue to provide information on the legal proceedings, which have been instituted under the Human Trafficking Act, 2005, indicating the penalties imposed on perpetrators.
