The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its report for the period ending 30 June 1993. It also notes the observations made by the General Union of Workers (UGT) on the application of the Convention. The Union considers the staff of the National Employment Institute (INEM) to be insufficient to efficiently perform its task to ensure effective recruitment and placement of workers. It also states that the Union's participation is limited to merely informing them, and that they are not consulted through the advisory committees. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would supply, with its next report, any comments it considers appropriate on the observations of the UGT. Also, please continue to supply information on the arrangements made at the national, regional and local levels, through the respective General Council, Executive Committee, and Executive Committees of Provinces established in accordance with Royal Decree 1458/1986, concerning the cooperation of employer and worker representatives in the organization and operation of the employment service and the consultation with these representatives in the development of employment service policy, as required by the report form under Articles 4 and 5 of the Convention.

Please also continue to describe the activities the employment service performs in order to carry out effectively its functions, as required by the report form under Article 6.

[The Government is asked to report in detail for the period ending 30 June 1994.]
