The Government should implement the recommendation of the JCHR’s 2017 report. A civil cause of action of failure to prevent forced labour should be created, with the burden placed on the relevant corporation to prove that 82 they had adequate procedure in place to prevent such forced labour. It would be a defence for the corporation to demonstrate that they did have adequate procedures in place, for example due diligence processes. Those corporations which could not discharge that burden would be liable to pay compensation to the victims. (Recommendation, Paragraph 271)
