Survey of the Millennium Challenge Corporation’s Policies and Procedures to Address U.S. Government Anti-Trafficking Policy

We recommend that the acting Vice President for the Department of Policy and International Relations develop a formal policy and written procedures on anti-trafficking that at a minimum includes: Defining how Millennium Challenge Corporation will address the issue of trafficking in development and implementation phases; Defining how Millennium Challenge Corporation will comply with U.S. Government anti-trafficking policies; Identifying actions Millennium Challenge Corporation should take when a country's tier rating declines; Identifying how Millennium Challenge Corporation will monitor countries' tier ratings and anti-trafficking efforts; and Identifying how Millennium Challenge Corporation will coordinate with the Department of State on receiving information on countries'\' anti-trafficking efforts and tier ratings.

We recommend that the acting Vice President for the Department of Policy and International Relations develop written guidance on actions it plans to take when countries are designated as Special Watch for the first year and subsequent consecutive years.
