This case is about modern slavery. Specifically, it is about the money paid by the state to certain potential victims of human trafficking[1]. On 1 March 2018 the weekly cash amount payable to such people was cut by 42% from pounds 65 to pounds 37.75. The claimants say that this cut is unlawful. They seek that the decision that brought about the cut be quashed and that they be recompensed at the weekly rate of pounds 27.25 from 1 March 2018 until repayment.
