a view to his prompting the courts to impose stiffer sentences on offenders against the law on the illegal employment of children. I realise that your judiciary 18 resistant to advice from the executive on sentencing policy but it seems to me that the level of fineu currently being imposed lu so manifestly unsatisfactory that an exception should be made.
The present
I have one other suggestion to offer. level of fines indicates that the offending employer considers it more economic to run the risk of being detected employing children than to pay higher wages to adult employees. Is there any reason therefore why a realistic minimum sentence or a minimum fine should not be inserted into the regulations on the employment of children? This minimum fine would of course need to be sufficient to make it uneconomic for the employer to run the risk of detection.
I should be grateful if you would let me know what you think about these ideas and to learn generally about the progress you are making in eliminating illegal child labour.

Tranny.
