    The requirement is for the operation and management of an Independent Child Trafficking Guardian (ICTG) Service. Independent Child Trafficking Guardians (also referred to as ‘Guardians’) will be appointed by the Service Provider to provide support to unaccompanied children and young people arriving in Scotland and who may have been a victim of, or may be vulnerable to becoming a victim of, human trafficking. The provision of the ICTG Service will fulfil the duty set out under Section 11 of the Human Trafficking and Exploitation (Scotland) Act 2015, through the development of an Independent Child Trafficking Guardian service, with a focus on prevention of re-trafficking.
