It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Dr Murrison. I thank my hon. Friend the Member for Edinburgh North and Leith for securing this debate. The depth of her knowledge and passion was obvious. Sexual exploitation can take different forms, often overlapping, with women and vulnerable people trapped in prostitution suffering daily abuse. In 2019, Home Office research by the University of Bristol found that it is not possible to produce a single estimate for the numbers of people engaged in prostitution in England and Wales, but existing estimates ranged from 35,882 to 104,964—a terrible number. The national referral mechanism statistics show that sexual exploitation accounted for 3 3,607 referrals in 2025 across the UK, with 80% being female. In Scotland, there were 144 referrals where sexual exploitation was reported as at least one exploitation type in 2025 compared to 135 in 2024. The government will work closely with counterparts in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland as well as law enforcement partners across the UK. The Online Safety Act sets out priority offences including sexual exploitation and human trafficking. Platforms now have a duty to assess risk of illegal harms on their services or face significant penalties. Ofcom is investigating adult sexual websites for non-compliance and not adopting age assurance measures. In 2025, £450,000 was provided to pilot a national intelligence hub using information from adult services websites, leading to four arrests during the pilot phase. The Home Office-funded modern slavery programme has developed a new framework for investigating modern slavery including sexual exploitation. We are also working closely with international partners such as Romania and Vietnam to disrupt trafficking networks.
