Part II of the Convention. Progressive abolition of fee-charging employment agencies. Prospects for the ratification of the Private Employment Agencies Convention, 1997 (No. 181). The Committee notes that, in reply to the request concerning the initiatives taken with a view to the ratification of Convention No. 181, the Government confirms in its report that the Convention has been submitted to Parliament with a favourable opinion with a view to its ratification. The Committee recalls that at its 273rd Session in November 1998 the ILO Governing Body invited the States parties to Convention No. 96 to contemplate ratifying Convention No. 181, as appropriate. The ratification of Convention No. 181 would lead immediately to the denunciation of Convention No. 96. As a consequence, until Convention No. 181 has been ratified by Gabon, Convention No. 96 will remain applicable in relation to the country, and the Committee will continue to examine its application. The Committee therefore hopes that the Government will soon be in a position to complete the steps for the ratification of the Private Employment Agencies Convention, 1997 (No. 181), which would involve the immediate denunciation of Convention No. 96 or, on the contrary, to provide information on the manner in which Convention No. 96 is applied.
