Article 3 of the Convention. Worst forms of child labour. Clause (b). Use, procuring or offering of a child for the production of pornography or for pornographic performances. The Committee previously noted that section 184(1) of the draft Penal Code prohibits anyone from promoting, facilitating, permitting, using or offering a young person under 16 years of age for, among other things, pornographic photography, films or engravings. The Committee therefore urged the Government to take the necessary measures to ensure that the forthcoming Penal Code includes a prohibition on using, procuring or offering of all persons under 18 years of age for the production of pornography or for pornographic performances, in conformity with Article 3(b) of the Convention.

The Committee notes with interest that the Joint Executive Decree No. 171 of 2010 which contains activities prohibited for minors include production of pornographic materials. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the application in practice of Decree No. 171/10 with regard to the use, procuring or offering of minors under the age of 18 years for the production of pornography or for pornographic performances, including the number of such violations reported and penalties applied.

Article 7(2). Effective and time-bound measures. Clause (d). Identification of children at special risk. Former child soldiers and children displaced as a result of the conflicts. In its previous comments, the Committee noted the Government’s indication that, following the end of the war in 2002, the return and reintegration of people directly affected by the conflict (including displaced children and former soldiers) was a priority for the Government. The Government indicated that there were approximately 4 million displaced persons, of which 40 per cent were children. It also noted the Government’s information that a series of programmes were carried out by the Cabinda provincial government to provide special services to children in the context of reintegrating the vulnerable groups directly affected by the armed conflict, including a training package in various vocational skills, life skills based on micro-lending, child protection and primary health care. Noting the absence of information on this point, the Committee once again requests the Government to strengthen its efforts with regard to rehabilitating and reintegrating children affected by the conflict, including former child soldiers. It also requests the Government to provide information on the number of children reached through the measures taken in this regard.
