Manicaland Correspondent
GOVERNMENT is reviewing and validating the Trafficking in Persons (TIP) Act to align it with global best practices, The Herald has learnt.

Speaking during the National Plan of Action (NAPLAC) on human trafficking workshop in Mutare on Monday, deputy chairperson of the anti-trafficking inter-ministerial committee, Mr Alois Matongo, said the workshop sought to review and consolidate inputs into the revised NAPLAC against TIP.

“As a country we put emotions in reviewing the TIP Act and align it with better global best practices in the development of TIP legislation,” Mr Matongo.

The final evaluation of the report will inform the crafting of a new NAPLAC for the next three years.
