It also notes the information supplied by the Government in response to its previous direct request on the remedial procedures available for workers alleging discrimination on the grounds of race, national extraction, political opinion or social origin. The Government states that it considers the current legislative mechanisms related to discrimination in employment to be inadequate. Noting that the Government has initiated a process to introduce new legislation in this field, based on the principles of the Convention, by spring 1996, the Committee asks the Government to keep it informed of developments in this regard and to supply a copy of the new Act, once adopted.
