The Committee notes the information provided in response to its last direct request, particularly as to the active training and placement measures taken by the employment service, with the organization of labour fairs and promotion of self-employment, and the improvements in compilation of employment statistics. It looks forward to receiving more detailed information in future reports (as requested under Article 1 of the Convention in the report form approved by the Governing Body) on trends in employment as they affect different categories of jobseekers (women, youth, older people and those with disabilities); and on how employment goals are taken into account in budgetary, monetary and trade policies and in the development of each sector.

The Committee requests that the next report include information on the activities of the coordinating committees for employment promotion, in light of the consultation requirements of Article 3, read in conjunction with Article 2. The Committee also would appreciate information on any technical cooperation with the ILO in the implementation of policies under the Convention.
