The Committee notes with regret that the Government’s report does not contain a reply to its previous comments. It is therefore bound to reiterate its previous observation, which read as follows:

The Committee notes that for some years section 14(2) of Act No. 92-570 of 1992 issuing general regulations for the public service has allowed access to certain positions to be reserved for persons of one or the other sex on the basis of physical aptitude. The Committee observes that the Government has previously expressed its intention to repeal this provision, and notes with regret that, according to its report, section 14 was not revised when the general public service regulations were reviewed. It notes, however, that the Government has renewed its resolve to take into account the concern that section 14 has caused as regards observance of equality between the sexes in treatment and access to the public service. The Committee requests the Government to amend section 14 so as to ensure its conformity with the Convention. It requests the Government to provide information on the measures taken or envisaged in the context of the Social Forum to revise this provision, and to send additional information on progress made in this respect.

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

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the near future.
