(SW2) Error: Rid the Lafose Sector of Pirates

[Scottage]

Just a couple of hours into the game and it seems to have fallen flat on it's face.

Got the cutscene to offer me the job of raiding the pirates in Lafose, but after accepting it didn't tell me /anything/ about what I was supposed to actually do. Naturally I tried going to Lafose, and while it did give me a cutscene approaching a pirate base, it still didn't kick start the mission and there is no-one else in system other than the pirates.

I'm feeling like I'll have to restart the game and choose a different path unless someone can fill in the blank of what the game isn't telling me.
