Article 6, paragraphs 1 and 2, of the Convention. See under Convention No. 77, as follows:

Article 6, paragraphs 1 and 2, of the Convention. With reference to its previous comment, the Committee notes from the information supplied in the Government's report that appropriate measures have not yet been adopted to ensure the formal application of these provisions of the Convention which provides for: (a) the vocational guidance and physical and vocational rehabilitation of children and young persons found by medical examination to be unsuited to certain types of work or to have physical handicaps or limitations; and (b) co-operation between the labour, health, educational and social services in order to determine the nature and extent of such measures and to carry them out.

The Committee draws attention to the type of measures liable to give effect to this Article of the Convention as enumerated in paragraph 9 of Recommendation No. 79 (medical treatment, adapted vocational instruction or education, financial aid). It trusts that suitable provisions will be adopted in the near future and requests the Government to report them immediately to the Office.
