I move amendment No. 43:
In page 27, lines 18 and 19, to delete all words from and including “amended” in line 18 down
to and including line 19 and substitute the following:
“amended— (a) in section 4—(i) by the substitution of the following subsection for subsection (3):and”.
“(3) A person who trafficks a vulnerable person for the purposes of the
exploitation of the vulnerable person shall be guilty of an offence.”,
and
(ii) by the substitution of the following subsection for subsection (8):
“(8) In this section, ‘vulnerable person’ means a person who has—
(a) a physical disability,
(b) a mental or intellectual disability, or
(c) a mental illness,
which is of such a nature or degree as to severely restrict the person to
guard himself or herself against serious exploitation.”,
