Taipa and Coloane Community Service Consultative Council member Jiang Xuchun urged the government yesterday to review its issuing of provisional stay permits to illegal immigrants and overstayers.
Jiang made the remarks during yesterday’s plenary session of the council at a community service centre run by the Civic and Municipal Bureau (IACM) in Taipa.
According to the current regulation, illegal immigrants and overstayers can be detained for up to 60 days pending the completion of their deportation process.
