The Committee takes note of the Government's latest report.

1. With regard to vocational training, the Committee again asks the Government to supply information on the effective participation of women in such training and to indicate by what means the Government endeavours to facilitate their access to it in pursuit of the national policy of promoting equality of opportunity and treatment referred to in Article 2 of the Convention. Please transmit statistical data on the subject.

2. The Committee takes note of the establishment of the General Agency for Practical Education and Training which, according to the Government's report, plays a particular part in supplying the labour market with skilled workers equipped with the necessary training through special programmes suited to the needs of the public and private sectors. The Committee asks the Government to transmit more specific information as to the nature of that programme, the number of participants, their background, the ratio of men to women and the results achieved.

3. With regard to the public service, the Committee again asks the Government to indicate how far women are also appointed to senior posts in the public administration and to supply statistics on the number and distribution of men and women at the various levels.

4. The Committee again asks the Government to indicate the measures taken or contemplated to ensure that access to employment in the judiciary is guaranteed without discrimination of any kind, particularly on grounds of sex or religion. Please indicate the number and functions of women and members of religious minorities employed in the judiciary.

5. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide, in its next report, information on the measures which have been taken as regards equality of opportunity and treatment in employment for the Bedouins.
