Calls for Cross-Party Support for Anti-Trafficking Legislation w/ ECPAT's Rebecca Kingi: 28 April, 2025

National MP, Greg Flemming, is pushing for cross-party support for anti-trafficking legislation to expand on his members’ bill.

This comes as recent court documents and child welfare agencies have shown cases of adoptive parents with criminal histories abusing children who have been adopted from overseas.

News and Editorial Director and Monday Wire Host, Joel, spoke to a board member of ECPAT Child Alert; an organisation aimed at ending child sexual exploitation, Rebecca Kingi, about current anti-trafficking legislation in Aotearoa and what these proposed changes aim to do.
