Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1999, publiée 88ème session CIT (2000)

The Committee notes the information supplied in the Government's report in response to its previous comments. In particular, it notes that the Employment Compensation Commission is currently studying the comprehensive rehabilitation programme and that its report is due in October 1999. The Committee would appreciate receiving a copy of the report or a summary of the findings, as requested in Part V of the report form.

The Committee also notes with interest the Government's statement that it has established an Inter-Agency Committee on Employment Promotion, Protection and Rehabilitation of Persons with Disabilities to coordinate and monitor implementation of the Magna Carta for Disabled Persons and other relevant legislation; to develop further legislation and programmes to promote employment of persons with disabilities; and to promote research and advocacy. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would continue to supply information on the activities of the Inter-Agency Committee.
