Article 14(a) of the Convention. Restrictions on employment and geographical mobility in the country. The Committee notes that, in reply to its request for the adoption without delay of measures to repeal Decree No. 77-45 of 4 March 1977 issuing regulations respecting the movement of foreign nationals and requiring special authorization for foreign workers to leave their town of residence, the Government indicates that no migrant workers lawfully resident in the national territory are restricted in their movements and reaffirms that provisions will be taken with a view to repealing the Decree. Recalling that, under the terms of Article 14(a) of the Convention, migrant workers residing lawfully in the country shall have the right to geographical mobility, the Committee once again urges the Government to take the necessary measures to formally repeal Decree No. 77-45 of 4 March 1977 issuing regulations respecting the movement of foreign nationals and to provide information on the measures adopted for this purpose.

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