CAT/C/UKR/CO/6 The State party should: (a) Amend its legislation in order to strengthen efforts to specifically criminalize, prevent and combat domestic violence, and ensure the effective implementation of legislation on domestic and family violence in practice; (b) Ensure that complaints from victims are promptly, thoroughly and impartially investigated, that perpetrators are prosecuted and, if found guilty, punished with appropriate and effective penalties; (c) Ensure that victims of domestic violence benefit from protection and effective remedies, including access to medical and legal services, psychosocial counselling, redress, including rehabilitation, and safe and adequately funded shelters in all parts of the country; (d) Ensure that law enforcement and the judicial authorities, as well as medical and social workers, are provided with appropriate training to deal with cases of domestic violence and continue to enhance awareness-raising efforts in order to sensitize members of the general public; (e) Compile and provide the Committee with disaggregated data on the number and nature of complaints, investigations, prosecutions and sentences handed down for acts of domestic violence, on the provision of redress to victims and on the difficulties experienced in preventing such acts. Trafficking in human beings 15. The Committee values the State Targeted Social Programme on combating trafficking in human beings, but is concerned that the State party remains a country of origin and transit for human trafficking, in particular for sexual and labour exploitation. It is also concerned that the crime of trafficking of human beings is not properly investigated, perpetrators are not sanctioned, and victims are not provided with access to effective remedies and redress (arts. 2, 10, 12, 13 and 16). The State party should: (a) Continue taking measures to prevent and eradicate human trafficking, including vigorous enforcement of anti-trafficking legislation, and provide sufficient funds for the financing of the State Targeted Social Programme; (b) Enhance international cooperation to combat human trafficking, in particular for the purpose of sexual and labour exploitation, including through bilateral agreements, and monitor the impact; (c) Provide specialized training to the police, prosecutors and judges, immigration officers, the border police, community support officers and psychologists on effective prevention, investigation, prosecution and punishment of acts of trafficking, including on the Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, Especially Women and Children, supplementing the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime, and continue nationwide awareness-raising and media campaigns about the criminal nature of such acts; (d) Promptly, effectively and impartially investigate, prosecute and punish trafficking in persons and related practices; (e) Provide effective remedy to all victims of the crime of trafficking, ensuring prompt and adequate psychological support, medical care, access to welfare benefits, adequate shelter and work permits, irrespective of their ability to cooperate in legal proceedings against traffickers; 6
