Part II of the Convention. Progressive abolition of fee-charging employment agencies. The Government indicates in its report that there has been no amendment to the legislation during the period covered by the report. With reference to its previous comments, the Committee recalls that, on 6 November 1958, the Government informed the ILO that its ratification of the Convention included acceptance of the provisions of Part II of the Convention. The Committee once again draws the Government’s attention to fact that, in the same way as the other member States which have ratified the Convention and have accepted Part II, Luxembourg undertook to abolish fee-charging employment agencies. The Committee recalls that the revision of Convention No. 96 was based on the recognition of the role played by private employment agencies in the operation of the labour market and that the modern standard in this field is now the Private Employment Agencies Convention, 1997 (No. 181). It also recalls that the Governing Body of the ILO has invited States parties to Convention No. 96 to contemplate ratifying, as appropriate, Convention No. 181, the ratification of which would, ipso jure, involve the immediate denunciation of Convention No. 96 (GB.273/LILS/4(Rev.1)). It hopes that the Government will soon be in a position to subscribe to the obligations set out in Convention No. 181. The Committee once again requests the Government to provide information on any developments which, in consultation with the social partners, may occur in this regard. The Committee also requests the Government to provide information on the application of the Convention in practice, including the measures adopted to supervise the activities of fee-charging employment agencies, and particularly on the number and nature of the contraventions reported and the penalties imposed.
