What is the main goal of information exchange under Section 56?

Under Section 56 of the PERA Act 2024, the primary purpose of information exchange between Departments and the Authority is to record violations of the law effectively. This mechanism allows the Authority to collect accurate and timely data on regulatory breaches, enabling prompt investigation and enforcement action.

By systematically recording violations, the Authority can track patterns, identify non-compliance trends, and coordinate enforcement with other regulatory bodies. This also ensures that all actions are based on verified data, promoting transparency, accountability, and efficiency in regulatory governance.

The goal is not merely to reduce workload, draft rules, or restrict data; instead, the focus is on maintaining a comprehensive record of violations to strengthen enforcement, prevent legal loopholes, and uphold the objectives of the PERA Act.
