1. In its previous comments the Committee noted that the Bangladesh Employers’ Association (BEA), in cooperation with the ILO, has undertaken a project for the "Promotion of women in private sector activities through employers’ organizations". Noting that no information was provided on the impact of the project on women’s employment opportunities, and on the measures taken to improve further the educational and employment opportunities of women, the Committee must again ask for information in this regard.

2. Regarding the enforcement of the provisions of the Convention, the Committee notes the Government’s statement that the Department of Inspection is at present not fully equipped with sufficient inspectors. The Committee asks the Government to continue to provide information on whether any measures have been taken to improve the capacity of the labour inspectorate and information on the number of inspections conducted, the violations identified and the actions taken. Please also provide a copy of any court decision relating to enforcement of equality legislation.

3. The Committee asks the Government to supply information on the measures undertaken to promote and realize in practice the principle of non-discrimination on the grounds of race, national extraction, colour, religion and social origin.

4. The Committee would appreciate receiving information on measures taken by the Government to seek the cooperation of workers’ and employers’ organizations in accordance with Article 3(a) of the Convention, to promote the application of the Convention.
