Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1996, publiée 85ème session CIT (1997)

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

1. The Committee notes from the report that the current system of education provides for technical and vocational training during the period of schooling, with a view to developing the income-generating capacity of the students. The Committee hopes that the data being collected on the implementation of this system will be supplied with the Government's next report.

2. Recalling that no information has been supplied for some years concerning the measures taken to ensure equality of opportunity and treatment in employment for women, the Committee hopes that the Government's next report will contain full information on any initiatives taken or contemplated in this regard. The Committee would also be grateful if the Government would forward any documents describing the situation of women in the country that might have been prepared for the Fourth World Conference on Women, held in Beijing in September 1995.
