CIPS L5M5 Exam - Topic 2 Question 23 Discussion

Posted by Tamie on Oct 21, 2026 at 07:06 PM

Which piece of UK legislation includes a provision for transparency in a company's supply chain?

Suggested Answer: B

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract of Documents:

The Modern Slavery Act 2015 introduced a requirement for companies with turnover above 36 million to publish annual slavery and human trafficking statements, disclosing actions to ensure transparency in supply chains. The L5M5 study guide (old p.62, new p.90) stresses its role in combating forced labour and human trafficking. While the Companies Act (A) focuses on governance, the Working Time Directive (C) regulates working hours, and the Health and Safety Act (D) ensures workplace safety, only the Modern Slavery Act addresses supply chain transparency.

I practiced a similar question last week, and I think the answer was the Modern Slavery Act. That sounds right to me!

The Working Time Directive doesn’t seem relevant here, but I’m a bit confused about the Health and Safety at Work Act too.

I remember discussing the Companies Act, but I don’t think it specifically addresses supply chain transparency.

I think it might be the Modern Slavery Act, but I’m not completely sure. We covered it in class, right?
