The Hon. (Mrs.) Oshani Umanga raised the need to modernise Sri Lanka's labour laws in line with advancements in artificial intelligence, innovation, and technology. She directed a question to the Minister seeking an update on the progress of a committee that the Minister had previously indicated was established to review and update existing labour legislation.
Hon. Speaker, as the world advances rapidly with AI, innovation and modern technology, labour laws must be updated to suit contemporary needs and workplaces. Hon. Minister, you mentioned a committee to update the existing laws. I wish to know its current progress.
