During the Second Stage debate I asked for the Minister of State's assurance and the definition of forced labour as intended by the convention and as understood in international jurisprudence. With respect "offering oneself voluntarily" means fully informed and free consent throughout the worker's service period. Will the Minister of State confirm that for the record? It is very important for those in the sector that this is the definition that is intended.
