Scotland's Trafficking and Exploitation Strategy 2025

Delivery Plan and Next Steps

The Delivery Plan will be developed in collaboration with people with lived experience of trafficking and partners, and will outline how the Strategy will be implemented.

The Delivery Plan will:

• define the short and medium-term outcomes that will contribute to the achievement of the four long-term outcomes above
• identify the activities that need to be undertaken in order to meet the outcomes (‘what we will do to achieve these’)
• outline how the principles will guide the way in which the activities will be carried out (section 10 above of the Strategy) (‘how will we do this’)
• identify indicators to be used to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of the activities developed to achieve the outcomes of the Strategy (‘how will we know if we are achieving our outcomes’).

The Strategy will come into effect from its publication date and will be reviewed after three years as required under section 36 of the Human Trafficking and Exploitation (Scotland) Act 2015.
