CMNT_TITLE

The Committee's previous observation, following comments received from the Trades Union Congress, related to the question of prison labour under Article 1(1) and Article 2(1) and (2)(c) of the Convention, as well as the question of domestic workers from outside the country. The Committee now notes that the Government's report was received on 16 November 1998, shortly before its session. The Committee has inadequate time to consider the report and has no alternative but to return to the matter at its next session. It consequently requests the Government to provide any more recent information it wishes to bring to the Committee's attention, in good time for its next session.

[The Government is asked to report in detail in 1999.]
