- Summary
-
"(...) We are concerned with attempts by a US State Department report to minimise Ireland’s challenges with the issue of Trafficking in Human Beings. We refer to the recently published Trafficking in Persons (TIP) Report 2007 (US State Department).
We must question how the US State Department received and composed this information – and stress that such inaccurate information serves no purpose for Ireland - either nationally or internationally. In our considered view, this year’s TIP Report departs from standards of objectivity and lacks a checking of data, thereby drawing inaccurate conclusions. (...)" - Related documents
