The Committee noted in its previous comments that the Government envisaged reviewing Decree No. 70-152 of 23 May 1970 respecting the organization, administration and supervision of prison establishments, and Decree No. 70-153 of 23 May 1970 issuing the internal rules of these establishments. Certain provisions in these texts provide for the possibility of hiring prison labour to private individuals. The Committee also noted the Government's statement that in practice it does not tolerate the use of prison labour by private individuals and that no case of this type has been reported. It also noted that the texts in question had not yet been amended. The Committee requests the Government to indicate in its next report the measures which it has taken to bring the legislation into conformity with practice and the requirements of the Convention on this point.
