Article 1 of the Convention. Contribution of the employment service to employment promotion. In reply to the previous comments, the Committee notes from the Government’s report that 142 employment offices were developed through projects carried out in creating decent jobs for youth, in addition to establishing 44 new offices. The Government indicates that, according to official indicators, these efforts helped to reduce the unemployment rates in the governorates in which they were set up. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the results achieved through the activities carried out by the employment service and the manner in which it ensures “the best possible organisation of the employment market as an integral part of the national programme for the achievement and maintenance of full employment and the development and use of productive resources” (Article 1(2)). Please also provide information on the number of public employment offices established, the number of employment applications received, the number of vacancies notified and the number of persons placed in employment by the offices.
