1. Answer the questions.
Why is this Protocol so important?
What are its main objectives?
What is the difference between the Convention and its Protocols?
What does this Protocol apply to?
When can we speak about “trafficking in persons”?
Why there are two places in the Protocol and what are they?
What measures of protection and support for victims does the Protocol contain?
How should law enforcement agencies of States parties cooperate to make its activities more effective in this field?
2. Put the words into the right order.
protection / for / general / a / and / Protocol / measures / support / contains / of / the / series / victims
together / should / the / Protocols / interpreted / with / be / Convention / the
implement / border / detect / parties / to / required / trafficking / and / to / security / States / controls / are
passports / requirements / imposed / should / to / commercial / visas / on / carriers / be / and / check
the / according / consent / illicit / are / definition / irrelevant / of / where / the / established / the / means / to / victim / is
3. Complete the sentences with the appropriate words: protection, provides for, exploited, supplements, dealing with, remain.
“Trafficking in persons” includes a range of cases where human beings are ... by organized criminal groups.
The Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons ... the UN Convention against Transnational Organized Crime.
Victims also have an opportunity to ... in the country of the receiving State party.
The Convention ... basic measures to prevent and combat transnational organized crime.
The Protocol contains two kinds of provisions: expressly providing ... and support, and ... the return of persons to their countries of origin.
4. Use the appropriate preposition: in, for, against, with, in, between, by, of, to.
The need ... an appropriate balance ... crime-control measures and measures to support or protect victims ... trafficking arises in two primary places in the Protocol.
Human beings are very often exploited ... organized criminal groups.
The Protocol also highlights the problems associated ... trafficking ... persons that often leads ... inhuman exploitation of trafficked persons.
The UN Convention ... Transnational Organized Crime is supplemented ... three Protocols.
Law enforcement agencies of countries are required ... cooperate ... each other ... identifying offenders and trafficked persons.
5. Say if it is true or false and give the right answer.
The Protocols can be interpreted without taking into account the Convention.
The provisions of the Protocol only deal with providing for protection and support for victims of trafficking.
According to the definition of “trafficking in persons”, the consent of the victim is irrelevant where illicit means are established.
It is not necessary for law enforcement agencies to cooperate with each other in sharing information about the methods of offenders.
As is the case of the Convention, the Protocol is intended to standardize terminology, laws and practices of countries in this area of the law.
The key definition “trafficking in persons” doesn’t include cases that don’t have any transnational aspect.
States parties are required to strengthen their border controls in order to detect and prevent trafficking.
