Yes, this is my question. Will the Leader take this to Government and ask if plans can be made to introduce something similar to section 71 of the British Coroners and Justice Act 2009? It should be a comparatively simple matter. It would be utterly shameful if we find there are conditions of slavery - we know of people, particularly illegal immigrants and others from foreign countries who are really vulnerable and appear already to have been held in difficult situations which might amount to slavery - but the people abusing them cannot be held to account because of a defect in legislation. This House could lead the move to amend that.
