Article 1 of the Convention. National Policy. The Committee notes the Government’s information that the Programme to Prevent and Reduce Child Labour for the period of 2016–20 was adopted by Prime Minister’s Decision No. 1023/OD TTG on 7 June 2016. The Programme aims at effectively implementing necessary measures to prevent and reduce child labour, promptly detecting children at risk and child labourers and providing timely intervention and support to reintegrate them into the community with opportunity to develop. The Committee therefore requests the Government to provide information on the implementation of the Programme to Prevent and Reduce Child Labour for the period of 2016–20 and its results achieved.

Article 8. Artistic performances. The Committee notes the Government’s information that Circular No. 11/2013/TT-BLDTHXH of June 2013 provides for a list of work activities in which children under 13 years of age may be employed, including work as actors, singers, dancers and athletes. The Committee recalls that, by virtue of Article 8 of the Convention, the competent authority may, by permits granted in individual cases, allow exceptions to the prohibition of employment or work provided for in Article 2 of this Convention, for such purposes as participation in artistic performances. Permits so granted shall limit the number of hours during which and prescribe the conditions in which employment or work is allowed. The Committee therefore requests that the Government indicate whether children under 13 years of age who participate in artistic and sport performances are allowed to do so following permits issued by the competent authority in individual cases. If not, it requests the Government to take the necessary measures to establish a system of individual permits to be granted for children under 13 years who participate in artistic and sport performances, and to limit the hours during which, and prescribe the conditions in which, such employment or work is allowed.
