The Minister of State for Textiles, Shri E.V.K.S. Elangovan, informed the Lok Sabha, in a written reply to a question by Shri Mohan Rawale that the Government have recognized a need for restructuring of labour laws to create a productive and productivity-conducive environment to ensure smooth production.
The Working Group has recommended that “while the genuine interests of the labour need to be protected, the policy environment and the implementation machinery should induce confidence among the entrepreneurs.
The labour law reform would lead to consolidation and merger of the units to achieve economies of scale and become internationally cost competitive in the globalized scenario”.
Government held discussions with the stake holders in this regard to reach a consensus. However, no decision could be arrived. RM/AS –19.11.07 Labour Laws USQ 341.
