The Committee notes the Government’s reports received in October 2003 and October 2004 and the information they contain in reply to its previous direct request. The Committee asks the Government to provide more detailed information in its next report on the measures actually implemented to promote full, productive and freely chosen employment, particularly in the following areas.

1. General and sectoral economic policies. The Committee notes that the Government’s employment policy is part of its strategy for economic recovery, which aims to promote growth and employment through strong fiscal and monetary policies. Please describe the results obtained or expected from the implementation of these employment policies. Please describe the measures taken in the context of the strategy to promote agricultural and non-agricultural rural activity. Please also indicate the measures taken or envisaged in the various fields covered by the National Employment and Training Conference of 2003, such as the promotion of self-employment, the creation of enterprises, export promotion, the encouragement of foreign investment and the strengthening of tourism (Articles 1 and 2 of the Convention).

2. Labour market policy measures and training. Please indicate the progress made in implementing a labour market information system and strengthening the National Employment Service. Please describe measures taken to develop vocational training and apprenticeship, and the activities conducted to this end by the National Training Council and the National Apprenticeship and Trade Testing Board.

3. Consultation of the representatives of the persons affected. The Committee notes that consultation of the persons affected on employment policy is carried out through the National Tripartite Consultative Council (NTCC), and that in addressing the rural sector and the informal sector and their role in the country’s development, the Government called on the NTCC to associate representatives of these sectors with its work. It requests the Government to indicate in its next report whether such representatives do participate in the work of the NTCC or are consulted in some other way on employment policies (Article 3).

4. ILO technical assistance. The Committee notes with interest the information on the technical assistance received by the Government with regard to the drafting of the national employment policy and measures for women in the informal economy. It requests the Government to continue to keep it informed of the results in terms of job creation and the integration of young people and women in the labour market that have been achieved as a consequence of the advice and technical assistance received from the Office (Part V of the report form).
