00:00Many of the people who contact me are temporary migrant workers here in regional NSW and are
00:09suffering similar exploitation.
00:13During a recent visit with the Commissioner to Griffith and in previous years NSW, I have
00:20met with many individuals who shared their harrowing experiences.
00:26The situations they presented involved forced labour, debt bondage, trafficking in persons
00:35and deceptive recruitment practices.
00:37Too often my brothers, my sisters, they find themselves without access to a sense of services
00:51and supports when they leave their employment schemes such as PAM.
00:58Often they leave for their own safety.
