Summary:

"A number of key stakeholders that were influential in securing the inclusion of a Transparency in Supply Chains (TISC) clause in the Modern Slavery Act advocated for the Government to create a central database or ‘registry’ that would host all modern slavery statements." ... "We have agreed that a central registry should meet a core set of criteria. It should be: independent, accountable to the public interest, robust, credible, free, open, accessible and sustainable in the long term."
