P1:

Regarding in development Albourne Company limited said this in their Modern Slavery Act Statement:

- In the financial year commencing on 1 April 2018, APL continues to investigate its supply chain and to seek information about its suppliers and the ways in which they conduct their businesses, by trying to include in new supplier contracts an undertaking that the supplier does not itself engage in the practices of slavery and human trafficking and that, as far as it is aware, having made reasonable enquiries, neither does any of its direct or indirect suppliers; and that it will promptly inform Albourne if either of those statements ceases to be true.

 

Also on page 1 the Statement says

- Albourne’s policy in relation to slavery and human trafficking is to avoid them entirely in the case of its own businesses and, in the case of its suppliers, to take reasonable steps to satisfy itself that they are not present in the supply chain prior to Albourne. Should there be indications that a supplier might be involved in such practices, Albourne would urge that supplier to desist from them and would cease to make purchases from that supplier until satisfied that it had permanently done so.
