Promised actions must be taken on sex trafficking and prostitution

Enda Kenny promised to act on sex trafficking and prostitution four years ago, yet a new programme shows these crimes still blight our society, writes Brian Killoran

The horrors portrayed in last night’s RTÉ Investigates programme may seem distant and remote but as a frontline organisation and independent law centre which supports and represents victims of sex trafficking, we can confirm this is a crime which reaches every county.
