A member of the government's taskforce on modern slavery has said there needs to be "greater collaboration between police forces" in tackling human trafficking and slavery in the UK. Caroline Haughey, who conducted an independent review of the Modern Slavery Act in 2016, told the World at One that she found "there were significant inconsistencies" from some police forces. She said they didn't all acknowledge that slavery happened or "didn't realise" and "didn't know how to deal with it". (Photo: A woman sheltering on a bed looking scared. Credit: PA)
