With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes with interest the new Act (No. 7142 of 8 March 1990) to promote social equality of women, and particularly the provisions set forth in sections 1, 2, 3, 4, 14, 15, 16, 17, 19, 20, 23, 29 and 32 (amending sections of the Labour Code) which refer to questions relating to the application of the Convention. Furthermore, the Committee refers to comments in its previous direct request concerning the desirability of including in the Bill on real equality for women certain provisions on equality in employment and occupation, including equal remuneration and protection against sexual harassment at the workplace. The Committee requests the Government to report on the results of the practical application of Act No. 7142 in terms of their effect on the application of the Convention, and particularly the aspects mentioned above.
