SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: More than 20 million men, women, and children throughout the world are victims of severe forms of trafficking in persons, defined in section 103 of the Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA) to include the recruitment, harboring, transportation, provision, or obtaining of a person for labor or services, through the use of force, fraud, or coercion, for the purpose of subjection to involuntary servitude, peonage, debt bondage, or slavery as well as sex trafficking. As the largest single purchaser of goods and services in the world, the Federal Government bears a responsibility to ensure that taxpayer dollars do not contribute to trafficking. The United States has long had a zerotolerance policy regarding Government employees and contractor personnel engaging in any form of this criminal behavior. FAR Subpart 22.17 codifies the zero tolerance policy. It provides for the use of a clause that requires contractors and subcontractors to notify government employees of trafficking violations and puts parties on notice that the government may impose remedies, including termination, for failure to comply with the requirements. Recent studies of TIP, including findings made by the Commission on Wartime Contracting and agency Inspectors General, pointed to the need for strengthened guidance and tools to address TIP. Both E.O. 13627, issued on September 25, 2012, and the ETGCA, which became law on January 2, 2013, create a stronger framework for agency prevention of trafficking by, among other things, (i) clarifying what constitutes trafficking or traffickingrelated activities in the Federal supply chain, (ii) requiring contractors in E:\FR\FM\12FEN1.SGM 12FEN1
