(a) The Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act
(MSPA), hereinafter referred to as MSPA or the Act, repeals and replaces
the Farm Labor Contractor Registration Act of 1963, as amended,
hereinafter referred to as FLCRA or the Farm Labor Contractor
Registration Act. Prior judgments and final orders obtained under FLCRA
continue in effect as stated in Sec. 500.4.
(b) These regulations include provisions necessitated by the
Immigration Reform and Control Act's (IRCA) amendment to the Immigration
and Nationality Act (INA). IRCA amended MSPA to remove section 106
thereof prohibiting the employment of illegal aliens. Matters concerning
certificate actions or the assessment of civil money penalties, for a
violation of section 106 of MSPA which occurred prior to June 1, 1987,
continue through final administrative determination as stated in
Sec. 500.147.
