PRI submission to the House of Lords Select Committee on The Modern Slavery Act 2015 Call for Evidence on the 2015 Modern Slavery Act

UK

The PRI welcomes the committee’s interest in the Modern Slavery Act’s impact and effectiveness. We make recommendations to strengthen the implementation of the Act’s provisions (especially Section 54 on transparency), through mandatory disclosures, a stronger monitoring and accountability mechanism, and considering a move towards human rights due diligence requirements.
