A human rights-based approach to the administration of criminal justice in cases of trafficking in persons 2012, para. 36
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- Jamaica, for example, through its National Task Force against Trafficking in Persons, and in collaboration with non-governmental organizations, has developed trafficking indicators, protocols and referral mechanisms for agencies involved in the identification, counselling and protective care of rescued or potential victims. Bulgaria has a comprehensive list of indicators for identifying victims of trafficking as part of its national referral mechanisms developed in cooperation with non-governmental organizations. Bulgaria also provides training on trafficking in human beings and victim identification to diplomats, consular and military attaches through the Diplomatic Institute at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The National Anti-Human Trafficking Task Force in Sri Lanka is currently developing and implementing standard operating procedures that would assist in the accurate and timely identification of victims of trafficking, and establish a referral mechanism to provide assistance and protection. Similarly, in April 2011, in the Republic of Moldova, the National Committee for Combating and Prevention of Trafficking in Persons approved the draft of an interdepartmental regulation on the identification of victims and potential victims of trafficking. The draft, which is awaiting final adoption and publication by the Ministry of Justice, will be an operational tool for organizations engaged in the national referral system and is aimed at streamlining and standardizing the identification process. 37.
