The Committee notes the Government’s report and requests it to refer to its comments on the Medical Examination of Young Persons (Industry) Convention, 1946 (No. 77). The Committee requests the Government to supply further information on the following point.

Article 7(2) of the Convention. Supervision of the enforcement of the system of medical examination for fitness for employment of children engaged either on their own account or on account of their parents. The Committee had previously requested the Government to indicate the measures taken to ensure that the system of medical examination for fitness for employment applies to children and young persons engaged on their account or on account of their parents in itinerant trading or in any other occupation carried on in streets or in other places to which the public have access. The Committee notes with regret the absence of information in the Government’s report on this point, despite the requests which it has repeatedly made since 1995. Noting that the Committee has been referring to this matter for several years, the Committee once again requests the Government to indicate the measures adopted or envisaged, or in case of the absence of such provisions in the national legislation, to take the necessary measures, without delay, to ensure that the system of medical examination for fitness for employment is applied to children and young persons engaged on their own account or on account of their parents in itinerant trading or in any other occupation carried out in the streets or in places to which the public have access. It requests the Government to provide information on any measures taken in this regard.
