Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1992, Publicación: 79ª reunión CIT (1992)

Article 1 of the Convention. In its previous comments the Committee pointed out that section 3 of the National Pensions (Non-Citizens and Absent Persons) Order, 1978, as amended, according to which foreign nationals cannot be affiliated to the insurance scheme unless they have resided in Mauritius for a continuous period of not less than two years, is not in conformity with Article 9, paragraph 2, of the Convention which provides that equality of treatment in respect of compensation for industrial accidents shall be guaranteed without any condition as to residence to the nationals of every State which has ratified the Convention who are victims of an industrial accident, as well as to their dependants. In its reply, the Government states that measures to ensure compliance with Article 1, paragraph 2, of the Convention are being considered and that further information will be supplied as soon as there is any new development. The Committee notes this statement. It trusts that measures to give full effect to this provision of the Convention will be adopted soon and that the Government will be able to indicate progress made in its next report.

[The Government is asked to report in detail for the period ending 30 June 1993.]
