An overview of the different types of legal challenges that can be made against negative trafficking and NRM decisions.

This training will be useful for:

Legal professionals interested in working with survivors of trafficking or Modern Slavery and those requiring a refresher
Support professionals working within and those working outside of the MSVCC
Those working at or with migrant or survivor led groups.

In this session we will provide an introduction as to how to challenge negative trafficking and NRM decisions, including:

Negative Reasonable Grounds / Conclusive Grounds decisions
Public Order and Bad Faith Disqualifications
Refusals of VTS leave
Refusals of NRM support and accommodation.

This session will be mainly focused on making reconsideration requests. We will also provide an overview of challenging decisions through judicial review and the asylum appeals process, including associated deadlines.

We will cover steps to take if survivors go missing and the impact this can have on a legal challenge.

Following this session we will share a template reconsideration request for future use.

The content for this session will cover legislation and case law from England and Wales as well as some international sources of law. It will have a strong focus on the Modern Slavery: statutory guidance for England and Wales (under s49 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015) and non-statutory guidance for Scotland and Northern Ireland.

The session is for 2 hours with an optional 30 minutes Q&A at the end.
