National policy on equality of opportunity with respect to political opinion, national extraction and social origin. The Committee notes that no information has been provided by the Government with respect to the measures taken or envisaged to ensure that no discrimination on the basis of political opinion, national extraction and social origin occurs in employment and occupation. The Committee recalls that the primary obligation of States that have ratified this Convention is to declare and pursue a national equality policy, and that the State cannot remain passive and implementation is measured by the effectiveness of the national policy and the results achieved (General Survey on fundamental Conventions, 2012, paragraph 734). The Committee therefore asks the Government to provide information on the measures taken to adopt and implement a national policy with respect to all the grounds set out in the Convention. The Committee also asks the Government to take immediate steps to collect and provide detailed information on all the measures taken or envisaged to ensure that no discrimination on the basis of political opinion, national extraction and social origin occurs in employment and occupation in accordance with Articles 2 and 3 of the Convention.

The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.
