Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1996, Publicación: 85ª reunión CIT (1997)

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 matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

1. The Committee notes the Government's report for the periods ending in 1993 and 1994 respectively and the reply to its previous comments. While it appreciates the Government's efforts to supply the information requested, the Committee regrets that the succinct and partial nature of the replies does not allow it to fully assess the effect given to the provisions of the Convention. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate the objectives of its employment policy, how this is determined and reviewed in the framework of a coordinated economic and social policy, the measures which are taken to ensure that the effects regarding employment are taken into consideration in the implementation of global policies for development and structural adjustment. The replies to these questions will entail the Government's formulating a full report, following the indications contained on the report form under Articles 1, 2 and 3 of the Convention. The Committee hopes that the forthcoming reports will, as far as possible, contain the information required.

2. More specifically, moreover, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would continue to supply information on the points raised earlier, specifying as far as possible the impact in terms of net creation of lasting employment, of measures taken, particularly with a view to retraining public sector workers affected by staff reductions, rural sector development programmes and labour-intensive public works programmes, or again, the policy for promoting employment in the informal urban sector. Finally, please give more detailed indications on the coordination of training programmes with employment policies and on the activity of the tripartite consultative commissions established for this purpose, as a follow-up to the recommendations in the ILO technical cooperation project in support of occupational training and employment (GUI/88/003).
