Abstract

The report 'Trafficking in Human Beings, Ten years of independent monitoring' marked the tenth anniversary of the establishment of the post of National Rapporteur as an independent monitoring mechanism of the Netherlands' efforts to combat human trafficking. It also marked ten years of making recommendations, 200 in all. Many of those recommendations have been acted upon, the importance of some has receded and others have been regularly repeated. The report outlines the progress made in efforts to tackle human trafficking in the Netherlands over the last ten years in light of those recommendations. In this contribution, the most important aspects of the report are summarised, with a focus on the three P's (protection, prevention and prosecution), together with the additional P's (punishment and partnership). © 2012 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.
