Article 1 of the Convention. In its previous comments the Committee pointed out that section 3 of the National Pensions (Non-Citizens and Absent Persons) Order, 1978, as amended, according to which foreign nationals cannot be affiliated to the insurance scheme unless they have resided in Mauritius for a continuous period of not less than two years, is not in conformity with Article 1, paragraph 2, of the Convention which provides that equality of treatment in respect of compensation for industrial accidents shall be guaranteed without any condition as to residence to the nationals of every State which has ratified the Convention and who are victims of an industrial accident, as well as to their dependants. In its last reply, the Government once again states that measures to ensure compliance with Article 1, paragraph 2, of the Convention are still being considered. In this situation the Committee cannot but once again express the hope that measures to give full effect to this provision of the Convention will be adopted soon and that the Government will be able to indicate progress made in its next report.
