Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 1998, publiée 87ème session CIT (1999)

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

The Committee notes from the Government's report that there have been no changes in the application of the Convention. The Committee recalls that for many years it has been requesting the Government to take steps to amend its legislation so as to provide for invalidity insurance. It again expresses its hope that, with the technical assistance of the International Labour Office, the Government will endeavour to establish an invalidity insurance scheme in accordance with the provisions of the Convention.

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