    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. It is true that I am the former Chairperson of that Committee. I stand in support of this Petition. But most importantly, I ask the Committee to check, while listening to the facts of this case or the cases that arise from this mistreatment, on the statutes and do amendments to ensure that we criminalise those agents who are sending workers without registering with the National Employment Authority (NEA). The NEA is supposed to have the data, but there are some agents who bypass that and ensure that they send our children to suffer without registering them. That is very critical; that any agency doing that must register with the NEA. I agree with Hon. Pukose that we need bilateral agreements between our country and the countries that take our labour so that we can have data of those who work there and are coming from this country, even if they sneak. I support, Hon. Deputy Speaker."
