The Government indicates that during 2009 and 2010, the ESA implemented active labour market measures which contributed to mitigating the impact of the global crisis and decreasing the number of unemployed persons. The Committee invites the Government to provide in its next report information on the results of the active labour market measures implemented by the ESA, especially in terms of decreasing the number of persons unemployed. It further asks the Government to indicate the measures taken to improve the quality and efficiency of the services provided by the ESA (Article 1(2) of the Convention).
