Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 1993, publiée 80ème session CIT (1993)

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation which read as follows:

1. With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes the Government's statement that the draft provisions to amend section 17 (b) of the Regulations issued under the Co-operatives Act (husband's authorization for a married woman to become a member of housing, agricultural or family vegetable garden cooperatives) will take the form of a Resolution of Congress rather than an Executive Agreement in order to give them greater legal force. The Committee requests the Government to provide a copy of the Resolution as soon as it has been adopted. 2. The Committee notes that the draft Legislative Decree to amend section 12 of the Commercial Code (husband's authorisation for married women to exercise commercial activities) and sections 66, 80 and 105 of the same Code (prohibition on married or single women from entering the stock market or becoming stockbrokers or public auctioneers), was presented to Congress at the beginning of 1990. The Committee hopes that the Government will provide a copy of the above Decree once it has been enacted.

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the very near future.
