1. (SBU) Following is Congen Florence TIP report for the
Republic of San Marino:

Overview:

San Marino is not a country of origin for international
trafficking of persons, nor is it a country of transit or
destination of such persons. According to Government officials,
there has not been a case of trafficking, as defined in section
103 of the "victims of trafficking and violence protection act
of 2000," in San Marino in 2005.


2. (SBU) PREVENTION:


B. There are no government agencies involved in
anti-trafficking efforts in San Marino.


C. There have been no anti-trafficking information or education
campaigns.


D. The Government does not support programs to prevent
trafficking.


F. San Marino functions in all respects according to European
community law and practice.


G. The San Marino government has applied a tight control of its
territory through the years. Given the size of the country,
religious standard and cultural traditions, the San Marino
government has always received public support for enforcement of
any laws prohibiting even misdemeanor misconduct of a sexual
nature. Cases of voluntary prostitution have been extremely
rare and limited in their duration. The government adequately
monitors its borders and usually prevents the settlement of
illegal immigrants. With only 25,000 inhabitants, this is a
relatively simple task.

H-J.San Marino has no specific working group or task force
dealing with trafficking in persons.


3. (SBU) INVESTIGATION AND PROSECUTION OF TRAFFICKERS:

A-D. San Marino has not enacted new legislation in 2005.


M. San Marino has no internal child sex tourism problem.


4. (SBU) PROTECTION AND ASSISTANCE TO VICTIMS:


B. San Marino has no regulations governing the protection and
assistance of victims of trafficking, and there are no NGOs
working in this area. The government does not provide funding
to foreign NGOs specialized in services to the victims. San
Marino is on record for providing assistance to various NGO
programs in other areas, but no cases defined under the
protocols listed above have arisen.


G. San Marino does not provide training in assistance to
trafficked victims for government officials or Foreign Service
officers.
