With reference to its previous comments, the Committee regrets to observe that the Government is still not able to report any progress concerning the implementation of the Convention. The Committee recalls that for over 20 years the Government has been indicating its intention to take action to amend the Labour Act, 1975, with a view to giving legislative expression to the requirements of the Convention.
The Committee notes from the Government’s report that the revised draft Employment Bill, elaborated with the technical assistance of the ILO, was submitted to the Government in August 1999 and is currently under consideration by a ministerial committee set up to consider its implications.
The Committee therefore again expresses the hope that the Government will soon adopt the new legislation giving effect to the provisions of the Convention and requests the Government to keep it informed of any progress achieved in this regard.
[The Government is asked to report in detail in 2003.]
