The Committee notes the Government's reply to its previous direct request to the effect that the information contained in the report by the United States Department of State for 1990 concerning the steps which had allegedly been taken to restrict or exclude workers belonging to the Shi'ite Muslim minority from certain jobs in the administration and in industry, and in particular in the Saudi Aramco Oil Company, are not true, in view of the fact that all individuals are equal in all fields of employment, irrespective of their colour and religion.

The Committee requests the Government to state whether measures have been taken to investigate the above allegations and, in general, any allegation relating to discriminatory situations which may exist in practice.
