The Committee notes that the Government's report contains no reply to previous comments. It must therefore repeat its previous observation which read as follows:

1. Regarding its previous observation concerning the restriction on women entering the Stock Exchange (section 66(c) of the Commercial Code), which is not applied and is to be examined as part of the legislative reforms, the Committee notes from the Government's report that it remains fully committed to expediting the process in the National Congress for the adoption of legal reforms to bring the national legislation into full conformity with ratified Conventions, in particular Convention No. 111. The Committee also notes that, to achieve this end, the Government has made a number of efforts for the necessary reforms of the Commercial Code and the Act on Cooperatives. The Committee requests the Government to keep it informed of progress in this respect in its next report. 2. The Committee is raising other matters in a request which it is addressing directly to the Government.

The Committee hopes that the Government will submit detailed information in its next report.
