Article 7(2)(a) of the Convention. The Committee notes with interest that the Children's and Adolescents' Code promulgated on 28 December 1992 includes in its scope young persons who work on their own account or independently (section 51) and that young persons engaged in itinerant trading are covered by the laws and regulations in force regarding this economic activity (section 66).

In earlier comments, the Committee noted that the necessary measures of identification had not yet been adopted for ensuring the application of the system of medical examination for fitness for employment to minors 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 public places.

The Committee requests the Government to indicate the statutory provisions applying to itinerant trading as regards the system of medical examination and to supply information on the measures taken or envisaged to determine the special measures of control and supervision called for in Article 7(2) of the Convention.

Article 6. The Committee refers to the comments made concerning Convention No. 77.
