Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2006, publiée 96ème session CIT (2007)

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:

The Government indicates in its last report that the Bill for an Ordinance, intended to bring the Workmen’s Compensation Ordinance into conformity with Articles 5 and 9 of the Convention, to which it had referred earlier, has not yet been enacted. It adds that the comments expected from the organizations to which the draft was sent have been received and that the draft would probably be processed by the legislator in the course of the next year. Noting this information, the Committee hopes that the legislation will be adopted in the very near future so as to give full effect to Articles 5 and 9 of the Convention. It would be grateful if the Government would provide a copy of the legislation in force with its next report.
