A FAIR LEGAL CONTROL OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS

RECENT PROPOSALS BY THE GOVERNMENT TO INCREASE PENALTIES FOR EMPLOYING ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS WILL PROVIDE A WORKABLE AND FAIR LEGAL FRAMEWORK FOR COTROLLING ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, THE SECRETARY FOR SECURITY, MR ALISTAIR ASPREY, SAID TODAY (MONDAY).

MR ASPREY TOLD A LUNCHEON MEETING OF THE ROTARY CLUB OF VICTORIA THAT THE PROPOSALS TO INCREASE THE PENALTIES FOR THOSE WHO KNOWINGLY EMPLOYED ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS AND TO INTRODUCE A NEW OFFENCE FOR A MAIN CONTRACTOR WHO ALLOWED ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS TO BE PRESENT ON A CONSTRUCTION SITE UNDER HIS CONTROL HAD A CLEAR MESSAGE.

"FOR THE EMPLOYER, THE MESSAGE IS THAT IT IS NOT WORTH THE RISK OF EMPLOYING AN ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT; AND FOR THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT, THE MESSAGE IS THAT THERE IS NO POINT COMING ΤΟ HONG KONG BECAUSE THERE WILL BE NO WORK AVAILABLE."
