The Committee notes the adoption of the new Labour Code (Act No. 133/AN/05) that it intends to examine at its next session. In this regard, the Committee notes the observations of the General Union of Djibouti Workers (UGTD) which were transmitted to the Government on 21 September 2007. The UGTD indicates that to ensure the application of the provisions of the Convention, it would be advisable to adopt implementing regulations under the new Labour Code and to establish a National Commission on Employment, Labour and Vocational Training that would ensure the strict application of the provisions of the Convention and would enable the social partners to prepare recommendations aiming at improving working conditions. The Committee requests the Government to provide in its next report full information on the implementation of all provisions of the Convention in light of the new Labour Code as well as any comments it may wish to make in response to the observations of the UGTD.
