The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

1. The Committee takes note of the reports received in June 1990, October 1990 and October 1991, which addressed respectively the application of the Convention in Zanzibar, the whole of the country and Tanganyika and contain information in reply to its previous direct request. It would be grateful if the Government would continue to supply information on the measures taken, in the country as a whole, to develop comprehensive and coordinated vocational guidance and training programmes, stating in particular how they are closely linked with employment. Please continue to supply all available statistical information on the beneficiaries of the different types of training.

2. The Committee refers to its General Survey of 1991 on human resources development (paragraph 404) and to its direct request on the application of Convention No. 140, and would be grateful if the Government would indicate how it is ensured that the policies and programmes encourage and enable "all persons, on an equal basis and without any discrimination whatsoever, to develop and use their capabilities for work" in accordance with Article 1, paragraph 5, of the Convention.

3. The Committee has been informed of the implementation of several ILO technical cooperation projects, including projects on the training of young people in the rural environment and disabled persons. Please indicate the action taken or envisaged as a result of the assistance and advice received in the framework of the ILO technical cooperation projects and, if any, the factors preventing or delaying such action (Part V of the report form).
