Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 2004, publiée 93ème session CIT (2005)

1. In its 1999 direct request, the Committee noted the brief statement made by the Government indicating that vocational guidance and training are part of a state-wide programme and are carried out jointly with the social partners and representatives of the state and private sectors. It asks the Government to provide a copy of the state-wide programme mentioned and any other document aiming at comprehensive and coordinated policies, and programmes of vocational guidance and vocational training, as defined in the Convention (Part I of the report form).

2. The Committee also points out the importance of first reports since they constitute the basis upon which the Committee makes its initial assessment of the observance of ratified Conventions. It therefore asks the Government to make a special effort to supply a report indicating, in detail, for each Article of the Convention, the legislation and other measures under which each provision is applied. The Government may deem it useful to consider appropriate forms of ILO assistance in this area.
