Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1998, Publicación: 87ª reunión CIT (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:

Part II of the Convention. 1. The Committee takes note of the Government's report.

2. In its previous comments, the Committee noted that section 45 of Act No. 21/AN/83 1st L of 3 February 1983 had repealed section 178 of the CTOM which prohibited fee-charging employment agencies from operating where public service labour offices existed (except for placement operations carried out by trade unions).

3. The Committee also noted that section 37 of Act No. 21/AN/83 1st L authorized certain exceptions to the principle whereby the National Employment Service has the monopoly of placement operations.

4. In view of the contradictory information given by the Government in its various reports, regarding the legal provisions in force and the effect given to the Convention, the Committee also refers to its comments on the application of Convention No. 88 and would be grateful if the Government would:

(i) explain how the principle set out in the Convention is applied in regions where no National Employment Service offices have been established; and

(ii) state whether placement operations of the kind provided for in section 37 of the Act of 1983 exist and, if so, indicate the measures taken or contemplated to ensure the application of Article 5, paragraph 2, of the Convention with regard to their regulation.
