- New Government Senator Khaleel Kothdiwala is applauding the Mia Amor Mottley-led administration for moving to ensure Barbadians have first access to local jobs.
This comes as employers are now required to meet stringent measures before permission is granted for them to bring in foreign labour.
These requirements are anchored in the work permit regulations, which form part of the provisions of the Immigration Bill, 2026.
Senator Kothdiwala says while Barbados would encourage skilled persons to seek employment on the island, Barbadians must ultimately be given a fair chance.
He also says it is essential that the new immigration regime puts the matter of foreign workers coming to the island on a firm footing, within reasonable boundaries.
