Modern Slavery Referrals

The request was partially successful.

Dear Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea,

I am writing under the Freedom of Information Act requesting information on modern slavery referrals made by the council to the National Referral Mechanism (NRM) from 2014 to 2019 and including 2020 so far.

I would like this information broken down year by year, and the ages and nationalities of each person provided and their location (using the first part of a postcode) where possible. If this is not possible please at least provide ages to distinguish between child and adult victims.

Please can you give as much detail about each case for the youngest five victims including work and living conditions, whether trafficking was involved, the circumstances of discovery and location. Please also do the same for the oldest five victims. If there are circumstantial pictures relating to these cases that you can let us have that would also be good.

If cases of modern slavery were detected by the council but were not referred to the NRM, please also give these figures year by year with some explanation as to why their cases were not referred to NRM. Again please provide fuller case details for the five oldest and youngest of these cases.

If there are sections of this FOI that cannot be complied with due to data protection legislation, time or cost constraints, please provide the information that you are able to provide without breaching this.

Yours faithfully,

Owen Sheppard
