Part III of the Convention. Articles 13 and 14. Regulation of fee-charging employment agencies. In its previous comments, the Committee requested the Government to provide information on the measures taken to ensure regular supervision of the activities of fee-charging employment agencies. In this regard, the Government indicates in its report that Decrees Nos 96-193 and 96-194 of 7 March 1996 ensure the regular supervision of the activities of fee-charging employment agencies and establish penalties for violations. The Committee recalls in this respect that Article 13 of the Convention provides that appropriate penalties, including the withdrawal when necessary of the licences and authorizations granted to fee-charging employment agencies, shall be prescribed for any violation of the national legislation in this regard. The Government adds that supervision of the activities or fee-charging employment agencies in the country is carried out through the monthly publication of a list of approved employment agencies on the technological platform of the Youth Employment Agency, and through the quarterly compilation of statistics on applications for employment, vacancies and the persons placed in employment on a quarterly basis by fee-charging employment agencies. The Government also reports that the labour inspection services carry out regular supervision to verify that the activities undertaken by fee-charging employment agencies are in compliance with the legislation in force. The Committee once again requests the Government to provide detailed information on the measures taken to ensure the regular supervision of the activities of fee-charging employment agencies and to provide information on the impact of these measures. It once again requests the Government to provide general information on the manner in which the Convention is applied, including extracts from official reports, information on the number and nature of infringements reported and the penalties imposed, and any other information on the application of the Convention in practice. In this regard, the Committee requests the Government provide a copy of the list of approved employment agencies referred to above on the technological platform of the Youth Employment Agency, as well as statistics on applications for employment, vacancies and persons placed in employment on a quarterly basis by fee-charging employment agencies.
