Dear Home Office,

As you will be aware from over two decades of indoor cannabis cultivation in the UK the police force execute raids on domestic and commercial properties every single day. Many of these are found to be kept in operation by the use of foreign nationals that have been smuggled into the UK and used as slaves to grow cannabis so the gangs can make extortionate profits free of tax. The gang leaders never get caught yet those enslaved are still punished according to multiple national newspaper reports, TV documentaries and personal accounts.

I would please like to know how many humans were found in illegal cannabis grow facilities in the UK in 2014 with the following breakdowns

i)how many were under the age of 18

ii)how many were deported

iii)how many were sentenced

iv)how many were given support for their trauma

And if anything is being done to tackle this problem other than creating Cannabis Disposal Teams which only unearth this abhorrent failure in UK drug policies.

Yours faithfully,

Greg de Hoedt
