Repetition

Article 1 of the Convention. Measures taken to secure the prohibition and elimination of the worst forms of child labour. Following its previous comments, the Committee noted with interest the Government’s statement that it is preparing draft legislation for accession to the Minimum Age Convention, 1973 (No. 138). The Committee encourages the Government to pursue its efforts in this regard, and to continue to provide information on progress made towards the ratification of Convention No. 138.

Article 4(1). Determination of hazardous work. The Committee previously noted the Government’s indication that the Preparatory Working Group of the National Commission on Child Labour had formulated the draft Decree containing a list of types of hazardous work prohibited to children under 18 years of age. The Committee requested the Government to take measures to ensure the adoption of the draft Decree.

The Committee noted the Government’s statement that the State Decree on Hazardous Labour for Young Persons has been adopted. The Government stated that this Decree contains a list of hazardous forms of work that are, or may be, hazardous for children and young persons. The Government stated that this list will be reviewed periodically. The Committee requests the Government to provide a copy of the State Decree on Hazardous Labour for Young Persons, with its next report.

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