Articles 9 and 10 of the Convention. Cost-sharing with respect to medicines and appliances. The Committee takes due note of the information provided by the Government in reply to its previous request concerning the exceptions to cost-sharing with respect to medicines and appliances, and in particular the “wide range of exemptions from prescription charges targeting those who are most in need and those who have the least means to pay”, as well the financial contribution required from other persons for entitlement to prescription medicines and appliances free of charge.
The Committee has been informed that, based on the recommendations of the Standards Review Mechanism Tripartite Working Group (SRM tripartite working group), the Governing Body has decided that member States for which Convention No. 17 is in force should be encouraged to ratify the more recent Employment Injury Benefits Convention, 1964 [Schedule I amended in 1980] (No. 121), or to accept Part VI of the Social Security (Minimum Standards) Convention, 1952 (No. 102) (see GB.328/LILS/2/1). Conventions Nos 121 and 102 reflect the more modern approach to employment injury benefits. The Committee therefore encourages the Government to follow up the Governing Body’s decision at its 328th Session (October–November 2016) approving the recommendations of the SRM Tripartite Working Group and to consider ratifying Convention No 121 or accepting Part VI of Convention No. 102 as the most up-to-date instruments in this subject area.
