    John Randall – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

    The below Parliamentary question was asked by John Randall on 2014-04-30.

    To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if he will take steps to ensure that assets of human traffickers are frozen within 48 hours of their arrest; and if he will make a statement.

    The Serious and Organised Crime Strategy, published in October 2013, sets out
    how the Government will make it harder for criminals to use, hide and move the
    proceeds of crime. The Government will, as soon as parliamentary time allows,
    seek to amend the Proceeds of Crime Act to enable assets to be frozen more
    quickly and easily.

    Section 60B of the Sexual Offences Act 2003 allows for relevant land vehicle,
    ship or aircraft to be detained where a person has been arrested for a human
    trafficking offence. These powers will be brought forward and consolidated
    into the Modern Slavery Bill.
