1. The Committee notes the detailed information provided by the Government in reply to its previous request.

2. Article 4 of the Convention. The Committee notes that the Minister of Employment helps the nationals to meet departure formalities by arranging for the issue of passport and air tickets and that, according to the Government, there has been no case where the Minister of Employment has either issued or refused an authorization under section 4(3) of the Recruitment Act, No. 39 of 1993 (in approving recruitment the responsible Minister shall examine criminal offences of the past ten years). Noting the wide discretion vested in the Minister, it suggests that the Government consider repealing, when the legislation is revised again, this section which appears not to be in compliance with this provision of the Convention, when read together with Article 6(1) of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights which has been ratified by Mauritius. The Committee, in the meantime, requests the Government to continue to provide information on the application in practice of this legislation.

3. Article 6(c) and (d). The Committee requests the Government to provide information under these provisions of the Convention.

4. Part V of the report form. The Committee requests the Government to provide statistical data concerning migrant workers in the country and nationals who have migrated abroad. It also requests the Government to provide general information on the manner in which the Convention is applied (for example, extracts from the labour inspection reports, information on practical difficulties in the application of the Convention).
