Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1995, Publicación: 83ª reunión CIT (1996)

The Committee notes with regret 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 that as the Government's report gives no further particulars in reply to the earlier direct requests, the Committee must return to the question in a new direct request. It hopes that the Government will without fail take the necessary steps and supply the information requested.

In the report received in March 1991, the Government expressed the intention of responding to the requests made earlier for information on the size and types of population, and the languages and characteristics of the populations likely to be covered by the Convention, when the situation of war affecting the areas in which they are likely to live had been resolved. The Committee notes from the later report (received in January 1992) that the Government has stated that there have been profound changes in the constitutional order which have a special impact on human rights, and has reiterated its earlier intention to denounce the Convention at the appropriate time.

The Committee hopes that the Government will remain in contact with the Office concerning the possible denunciation of the Convention, and that it will make an appropriate decision following consultations. In the meantime, it requests the Government to provide the information requested earlier as soon as the situation may allow. Please indicate also the legislative changes which would affect the situation of the populations covered by the Convention.
