Assessing the Modern Slavery Impacts of the Nationality and Borders Act: One Year On

By Noemi Magugliani | John Trajer | Jean-Pierre Gauci

In light of these developments, the report addresses the following research questions: - - What has been the impact of the operationalised NABA measures on the identification and wellbeing of people with lived experience of modern slavery, and are these impacts in line with the stated objectives of the legislation? What has been the impact of the operationalised NABA measures on the modern slavery sector more broadly? Given the timing of this report, the analysis is restricted to the impacts of Part 5 of NABA in the year following its implementation (covering the period from the first quarter of 2023, when      most of the key provision entered into force, up to the fourth quarter of 2023).1 It is hoped that this analysis will inform any future research on the impacts of this Act, as well as the impacts of other legislation adopted in this area (in particular, the Illegal Migration Act 2023).
