Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 2001, Publicación: 90ª reunión CIT (2002)

The Committee notes with regret that the Government’s report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its comments of 1990 which read as follows:

The Committee notes that the public employment service in Sao Tome and Principe is free of charge (Article 1, paragraph 1, of the Convention). It hopes that in its next report the Government will supply further information on a number of points that have already been raised in its previous direct request and, particularly, on the arrangements made in accordance with Articles 4 and 5 to ensure 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. Please also continue to supply statistical information and the other published information indicated in Part IV of the report form on the work of the CNE respecting the appropriate measures to be taken in accordance with the provisions of Article 6(b), (c) and (e) of the Convention.

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the very near future.
