Emigration Act may be amended
New
Delhi: In order to promote overseas employment and
for the better protection of emigrant workers, the Govt
is considering amendment to the Emigration Act, 1983,
according to Minister of State for Labour Oscar Fernandes.
He told the Rajya Sabha that it is proposed to include
penal provisions against the offence of human smuggling
and stringent regulation of the recruiting agents, including
laying down service standards for them. "There is no
proposal for setting up special courts. The amendments
are under finalisation," he said.
