Slave Trade Acts

The Slavery Abolition Act 1833 was repealed in its entirety.^[4]^[5] The repeal has not made slavery legal again, with sections of the Slave Trade Act 1824, Slave Trade Act 1843 and Slave Trade Act 1873 continuing in force. In its place the Human Rights Act 1998 incorporates into British Law Article 4 of the European Convention on Human Rights which prohibits the holding of persons as slaves.^[6]^[7]^[8]^[9]
