Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2000, Publicación: 89ª reunión CIT (2001)

Part III of the Convention.  The Committee notes the Government’s report on the application of the Convention and the information that it contains in reply to its previous comments. It notes that Part V of the Employment and Training Services Act, 1990, has been in effect since 1 January 1996 and that the Employment Agencies Regulations, 1995, (Legal Notice No. 127 of 1995) has been adopted under section 25 of the Act. In this respect, the Committee notes that both section 23(6) of the Act of 1990 and section 10 of the Regulations of 1995 prohibit employment agencies from receiving any payments from workers. Noting that section 4(1)(c) of the Regulations provides that applications for licences to carry on an employment agency must include information on the method by which it will be financed, the Committee requests the Government to indicate how effect is given to Articles 10(c) and 11(b) of the Convention, which require the approval of the competent authority for the determination of the scale of fees.

The Government is also requested to provide any relevant information on the application of the Convention in practice, as requested under Part V of the report form.
