The right to an effective remedy for trafficked persons 2011, para. 59
Párrafo- Paragraph text
- The need to ensure active participation of children also implies that the child should be provided with legal representation without costs to the child, as well as with interpretation into the native language of the child, as necessary. In a number of States, children are entitled by law to access to legal assistance. It is not clear, however, to what extent this right has been implemented in practice, as many States do not keep track of the number of trafficked children receiving legal assistance. It has also been reported by practitioners that trafficked children have limited access to lawyers who are specifically trained in children's rights and the issues of child trafficking, which is compounded by the lack of legal and interpretative assistance provided to trafficked persons in general.
