Article 2(2)(c) of the Convention. Prison labour for private enterprises. In its previous comments, the Committee requested the Government to provide information on the remuneration received by prisoners when they perform work for private enterprises. In its reply, the Government has provided information on the different modalities of work performed as well as on the distribution of the work products. While noting this information, the Committee requests the Government, once again, to indicate how the remuneration level is fixed for prisoners working for private enterprises and what provisions are applicable in this regard. Please also provide a copy of Decree No. 023-2001-JUS regulating the Code for the Execution of Sentences.
