They do give training to procurement but it is not clear whether that include modern slavery training. And the sentence that follows seems to imply that it does not include it yet.

During the financial year 2018-2019 we will be exploring third party training programmes on modern slavery for employees involved in our supply chain that will address modern slavery risks.4
