Paying the
Price: A Consultation Paper on Prostitution British Home Office Prostitution Review Team Nov. 2004. Published to prompt a public debate on how to deal with the issues raised by prostitution in England and Wales. Views on policy and practice will pave the way for the development of a coordinated strategy for prostitution – aimed at reducing the harms associated with prostitution, experienced by those involved and by those communities in which it takes place. Views are welcome from everyone with an interest in this area of public policy, but particularly from those with experience of involvement in prostitution, those with experience of the impact of prostitution in their neighbourhood, and from those agencies - both voluntary and statutory - working in this field. |

Trafficking Victims Protection Act In December 2003, President Bush reauthorized the Trafficking Victims Protection Act, which accelerates our global work against modern-day slavery in a number of ways: Provides new tools for addressing destination countries that may be turning a blind eye to trafficking, especially the abuse of foreign women. Makes convictions and sentencing of traffickers as important as arrests in evaluating country progress. Requires better statistical monitoring, giving us access to critical law enforcement data related to trafficking. Creates a Watch List of countries weakening their commitment to prosecute traffickers, prevent abuse, and protect victims. |
