Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2002, Publicación: 91ª reunión CIT (2003)

The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its reports in 1997 and 2001, as well as its reply to the Committee’s previous comments. It also notes detailed statistics on the payment of old-age, survivors’, disability and work injury benefits to beneficiaries residing abroad, including in countries with which Israel has no bilateral convention, but which are also parties to Convention No. 118. The Committee recalls in this respect the intention of the Government expressed in its report of 1994, to enact regulations to codify this practice under section 190 of the National Insurance Law (old edition), so as to give effect to Article 5 of the Convention not only in practice but in law as well. It would be glad to receive information on the progress made in this respect in the Government’s next report. Please provide also a copy of the new edition of the National Insurance Law in effect from 1 October 1995, together with its English translation, if available.
