Question to the Home Office:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon (HL783), whether they have now considered the judge's remarks made during <i>Taiwo v Olaigbe and another </i>[2016] UKSC 31; if so, what is their assessment of them; and if not, when they plan to do so.

The Government has provided strong protections for overseas domestic workers, including giving them the right to change employers during the six-month period for which they are admitted. There are no current plans to amend the Modern Slavery Act, but we keep the measures in the Act under review.
