Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 2009, Publicación: 99ª reunión CIT (2010)

Article 1 of the Convention. Prohibition of discrimination. The Committee notes with regret that the Government’s report has not been received. It recalls its previous comments regarding section 20 of the Order of 5 March 1987 on the general principles of the public service, which prohibits discrimination only on the basis of philosophical or religious views and sex. Recalling that where provisions are adopted to give effect to the principle of non-discrimination contained in the Convention, they should include all of the grounds set forth in Article 1(1)(a) of the Convention, the Committee asks the Government to amend section 20 and to indicate the steps taken in this regard.

The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.
