Human Trafficking: Children

Mr. Steen
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice what estimate he has made of the number of trafficked children who were transferred from adult prisons to the juvenile secure estate following a re-determination of their age assessment in the last three years.

Mr. Hanson
Neither the Prison Service nor the Youth Justice Board, which has responsibility for placing young people in the under-18 secure estate, is aware of any such transfers during the period in question.
