Comment: the article below is quite a short news. For further information, go to http://thereport.amnesty.org/eng/Homepage , the concerned part for Ireland is the following:
Asylum-seekers and victims of trafficking Guidance for legislative proposals to consolidate and reform immigration legislation, and establish a single protection procedure was published in September. It gave rise to concerns, including a lack of clarity in distinguishing between refugee protection and subsidiary forms of protections; failure to address the lack of transparency and inconsistent decision-making in the present appeal mechanism; failure to address the continued inappropriate housing of immigration detainees in prisons; and the absence of specific protection measures for victims of trafficking. Likewise, the Criminal Law (Trafficking in Persons and Sexual Offences) Bill 2006 published in July failed to provide for the latter. Write Comment |

Comment: If the media in itself cannot be considered as neutral within the sensitive political Moldovan context, nevertheless the article is well documented and structured. The sources of information are diversified, from UN agencies, IOM and the Washington Post. The journalist mentions an interesting counter-trafficking initiative in Tiraspol, but, unfortunately, without giving further details on specific activities and results. Write Comment |
