There are many migrants from these porous borders who are trafficked and smuggled for various reasons. This includes sex trafficking, trafficking for labour exploitation in mines and in households amongst other cases. In terms of the Law. The government is currently working on a TIP Amendment Act and has indicated signs of developing a Smuggling of Migrants Legislation. The Government, under the Ministry of Home Affairs launched an inter-ministerial National Committee on Human Trafficking, through its Secretariat on Human Trafficking National Office, which meets regularly to conduct oversight of national anti-trafficking efforts. The Committee developed and launched a new 2022-2024 NAP on trafficking in persons and migrant smuggling, coordinated trainings on human trafficking hosted by international organizations, reviewed policy and legislation, and developed and launched NRMs on trafficking in persons, migration, and migrant smuggling.
