The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the following matters which were raised in its previous direct request.

Article 6 of the Convention. See the comments under Article 6 of Convention No. 77, as follows:

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the following matters which were raised in its previous direct request.

Article 6 of the Convention. Further to its previous comments, the Committee noted, following the information supplied by the Government in its report received in 1989, the efforts made concerning the vocational guidance and the physical and vocational rehabilitation of the disabled, and particularly of minors. It referred in this connection, to its comments on the application of Convention No. 159.

The Committee also noted the action taken by the Government to accelerate the procedure for the adoption of the draft revision of the Children's Code by the legislative chambers. It trusts that it will be possible to adopt this Code in the near future and that the Code will determine the nature and extent of the appropriate measures that are to be taken for the vocational guidance and physical and vocational rehabilitation of children and young persons found by medical examination to be unsuited to certain types of work or to have physical handicaps or limitations. The Committee hopes that in its next report the Government will be able to supply replies to the questions that have been raised for several years.

Article 7, paragraph 2. The Committee noted the information according to which the draft revision of the Children's Code was to enshrine the principle of compulsory medical examination for all categories of activity without exception, including itinerant trading and occupations carried on in the streets. It noted that it is also intended that supervisory procedures will be established by the Ministries and municipal councils concerned. The Committee trusts that the process of revising the Children's Code, to which reference is made in the comments concerning Article 6, will be rapidly completed and that the new text will extend medical examination to the categories concerned and will determine the special supervisory measures set out in Article 7, paragraph 2. It hopes that the Government will be in a position to supply in its next report the replies that are awaited to the questions that have been raised for several years.
