Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'll be splitting my time with Mr. Fragiskatos.
You mentioned in your opening statement that there are reports of around 20,000 women and children who were victims of human trafficking in 2016. That number rose 25%. A lot of these women and girls who are being trafficked are coming from Nepal and Bangladesh.
How does corruption affect the enforcement? I read in the briefings that there is a 77% acquittal rate. Again, how does the Indian government...and how can Canada help with this high rate of acquittal charges and help end corruption, so that we can find the root causes and bring these perpetrators to justice?
