1. The Committee notes with interest from the Government's reply to its previous direct request, that the Government envisages taking the necessary steps in the near future to amend, in accordance with the Convention, the texts to which the Committee referred in its previous comments. The Committee recalls that the following texts should be amended:

- Decree No. 74/350/PRES/FPT of 14 September 1974 (to bring it into conformity with Article 2, paragaphs 2 and 7, of the Convention).

- Section 6 of the Labour Code (to bring it into conformity with Article 10 of the Convention).

- Section 32, subsection 2, of the Labour Code (to bring it into conformity with Articles 10 and 12(d) of the Convention).

- Sections 4, 5 and 6 of Order No. 98/TFP/PMO/FPR of 15 February 1967 (to bring them into conformity with Articles 10, 12(d) and 14(a) of the Convention).

The Committee hopes that it will be possible for the next report to contain information on the amendments made to give full effect to the Convention.

2. The Committee thanks the Government for providing the text of Ordinance No. 83-005/CSP/PRES of 2 February 1983. It requests the Government to provide with its next report a copy of the texts governing the residence of foreigners.
