The Committee notes the Government’s report for French Polynesia, which includes statistical data.

1. Following its previous request, the Committee takes note of the indication of the Government that no measures have been adopted or envisaged by the Higher Council for Employment, Vocational Training and Social Promotion to promote the equality of opportunity and treatment in employment and occupation for men and women workers. The Committee notes the Government’s statement that equality in this area is ensured through local and national regulations. It requests the Government to supply copies of such provisions with its next report and the information on policies and practical measures to combat distinctions, exclusions or preferences on the basis of the criteria set forth in Article 1(1)(a) of the Convention.

2. The Committee asks the Government to provide information on the number of cases and type of allegations that have been brought to the attention of the labour inspectorate in relation to the violation of the principle of equality of opportunity and treatment in respect of employment and occupation.
