1. Article 1, paragraphs 1 and 4, of the Convention. The Committee notes that, under the terms of section 2 of Social Security Act No. 2001-55 of 27 November 2001, residents of rural areas who normally work in the countryside on their account or for the community to which they belong, who do not receive remuneration from a public or private employer and who do not have recourse to persons from outside the community or to third parties to undertake economic activities under their control, may be insured by the special rural workers’ social security scheme. It requests the Government to provide detailed information on the nature of these communities, their number, size, the legal system applicable to them and the number of workers insured under the special rural workers’ social security scheme.

2. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide copies, with its next report, of the texts of the codified statutes of the Ecuadorian Social Security Institute.
