The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government in its report for the period ending 30 June 1989.

Article 6 of the Convention, branch (i) (family benefit). The Committee notes that section 32 of Law No. 155 of 23 April 1981 provides that family allowances are due to foreign workers employed in Italy on behalf of persons residing abroad if the State of which they are nationals provides a reciprocal system in favour of Italian nationals and the Ministry of Labour and Social Security in conjunction with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs identifies the States in which such reciprocal system is in force. The Committee would be grateful to the Government if it would indicate which States are considered by the Ministy of Labour and Social Security as providing such reciprocal system.

It requests the Government to continue indicating any progress made towards the conclusion of new agreements with countries for which the Convention is in force and especially with countries whose nationals emigrate and work in Italy.
