Articles 11 and 12 of the Convention. In its previous report, the Government expressed the intention of ensuring free medical coverage for the wives and children of insured persons, in accordance with these provisions of the Convention, either through the Ecuadorian Social Security Institute or other social insurance systems. According to the Government's latest report, medical insurance coverage has not been extended to the members of the family of insured persons. In these conditions, the Committee once again trusts that the Government will make every effort to ensure that the wives and children of both insured persons and beneficiaries of social security benefits, referred to in Article 12 of the Convention, including the beneficiaries of survivors' benefits, are provided with free medical care, and that the Government's next report will indicate the measures taken for this purpose.
