The Committee notes from the Government's reply to its previous direct request that the Government has taken note of the request and that it is receiving attention by the new authorities. The Committee hopes that the Government will be able to indicate in the near future that progress is being made on the following points:

Article 2 of the Convention. The Committee recalls that the Employment Decree allows for a statutory order limiting or extending the application of all or any of its provisions to be issued, which could have the effect of limiting the scope of the legislation in a manner incompatible with the Convention. It hopes that the Government will supply information in future reports on the issuance of any such orders.

Article 10. The Committee recalls the Government's statement in an earlier report that it will take appropriate measures when the need arises to ensure the application of this Article. It hopes that the Government will continue to consider measures to bring the legislation into closer conformity with the practice and with the requirements of the Convention.

Article 13. The Committee recalls the Government's statement in an earlier report that there have been no difficulties encountered in applying this Article in practice. Please indicate in the next report whether any violations of the requirement of this Article have been noted, and if so how they were dealt with. The Committee hopes that the Government will bring the legislation into conformity with the Convention in due time.
