The Committee notes the statistical information requested under point IV of the report form provided by the Government in its report, together with a brief statement concerning the regional structure of the Employment Service. It observes, however, that the Government has not supplied any new information in reply to its previous comments. The Committee therefore hopes that the next report will include full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:
Articles 4 and 5. The Committee notes the information concerning the activities of the national employment advisory committees and their contribution to the employment policies in different branches of the economy. It also notes from the Government's report received in March 1991 that these committees were functioning until March 1988 and since that time their activities have been suspended. The Committee therefore asks the Government to indicate the arrangements made to give effect to these Articles of the Convention which provide that suitable arrangements shall be made through advisory committees for the cooperation of representatives of employers and workers in the organization and operation of the employment service and in the development of employment service policy.
Article 9. The Committee notes that the Government refers in its reports to Chapter V of the Political Constitution of Nicaragua which contains provisions concerning labour rights and to the Act on Civil Service (Law No. 70 of 1990) containing similar provisions. It also notes from the Government's report received in March 1991 that this Act has been suspended as long as there are no regulations issued under it. The Committee hopes that in its next report the Government will supply further information concerning the legal status and conditions of service of employment service staff, indicating, in particular, whether they are independent of changes of government and of improper external influences and, subject to the needs of the service, are assured of stability of employment, as required under this Article.
