GRETA considers that the Norwegian authorities should continue to promote the development of specialisation to work on THB cases among prosecutors and judges, and ensure all relevant professionals are trained regularly and systematically on preventing and combating THB, identifying victims and referring them to assistance. The training should be integrated in the regular training curricula of different professional groups, including law enforcement officials, prosecutors, judges, staff at immigration detention centres, labour inspectors, social workers, child welfare staff, health-care staff, as well as diplomatic and consular staff
