1. Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes from the Government's report that regulations on higher education are currently being revised. The Committee recalls that under the regulations on higher educational establishments, approved by Order No. 119 of 1974 of the Council of Ministers, one of the principal objectives of higher education is to educate students in the ideology of Marx, Lenin and the aims of socialism. Further, pursuant to the Model Regulations on the certification of specialists with higher and secondary specialised education (approved by Order No. 615 of 1975 of the Council of Ministers), the purpose of the first exam is to determine whether a candidate is faithful to the ideals of Marx-Leninism, to international proletarian ideals and to the ideals of the Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party.

The Committee is concerned that the above-mentioned regulations could have the effect of creating a preference, distinction or exclusion on the basis of political opinion, in access to institutions of learning or to particular occupations requiring higher or specialist education.

The Committee hopes the revised regulations will ensure that discrimination in access to higher educational institutions, employment or occupation will not occur on the basis of political opinion or on any of the other grounds set out in Article 1, paragraph 1(a), of the Convention. It requests the Government to supply a copy of the revised regulations upon their adoption and to supply copies of any other measures taken to ensure that the Convention is applied in respect of political opinion.

The Committee also requests the Government to supply copies of any provisions adopted by ministries and departments pursuant to Order No. 615/1975 concerning the certification of specialists in various sectors and to furnish a copy of the latest adopted text on the procedure for admission to higher educational establishments which, according to the Government's previous report, is approved annually by the State Committee on Science, Technology and Higher Education.

2. As the Government's report has still not replied to its previous comment, the Committee once again requests the Government to supply information on all steps taken for the effective promotion of equality of opportunity and treatment, irrespective of race, sex, religion, national extraction or social origin, and on the results secured with regard to:

(a) access to vocational training;

(b) access to employment and to particular occupations;

(c) terms and conditions of employment. In this connection the Government is more particularly requested to indicate the measures taken to promote equality of opportunity and treatment:

(i) in employment, vocational training and occupational guidance under a national authority; (ii) through legislation and educational programmes; (iii) in cooperation with employers' and workers' organisations and other appropriate bodies.

Recalling the Government's earlier reference to the provisions of sections 2, 12 and 78 of the Labour Code, the Committee would again point out that the implementation of the Convention rests upon the adoption of positive measures in pursuance of a national policy designed to promote equality of opportunity and treatment, and requests the Government to supply information on all measures taken on the above-mentioned points.
