Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1998, published 87th ILC session (1999)

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

The Committee notes the Government's report in reply to its previous direct request. It notes the favourable opinion of the recently established technical committee regarding the need to amend section 87 of Labour Code No. 58 of 1970 and section 2 of Act No. 72 of 1972 (not available at the ILO) with a view to bringing national legislation into conformity with the Convention.

The Committee trusts that the Government will not fail to follow up this opinion in the near future. It requests it to keep the ILO informed of any progress in this respect.
