The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government and observes that the report contains no reference to Decree No. 9/89 of 3 June 1989 setting up a "system to regulate human resources". With reference to its previous comments, it would be grateful if the Government would indicate the measures taken to implement that Decree and the provisions of Article 3 of the Convention (establishment of a network of local offices, review of the organization of this network and, where necessary, revision of the system).

Articles 4 and 5. The Committee notes with interest the adoption of Decree No. 37/92 of 27 October 1992 creating the National Institute of Employment and Vocational Training (INEFP), a tripartite body responsible for ensuring that employers' and workers' representatives participate in formulating national employment policy. It would be grateful if the Government would indicate in greater detail the functions of the INEFP in regard to recruitment and placement of workers and, more particularly, to specify whether the INEFP is consulted on the organization and operation of the employment service and on the development of employment service policy.

Article 6. The Committee once again requests the Government to provide information on the measures taken by the employment service to: refer applicants and vacancies from one employment office to another ((a)(iv)); cooperate in the implementation of measures taken in connection with the "Employment Promotion Fund" ((d)); and assist, as necessary, other public and private bodies in social and economic planning to ensure a favourable employment situation. While noting the information supplied by the Government on movement of workers from one country to another, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would specify whether the employment service plays a role in this field ((b)(iv)).

Articles 7 and 8. The Committee notes that the vocational training measures intended for demobilized military personnel and disabled persons were adopted and implemented in 1994 and 1995. It would be grateful if the Government would continue to supply information on all measures taken in the employment service to meet adequately the needs of particular categories of applicants for employment and, in particular, for juveniles.

The Committee suggests that the Government should remain in contact with the competent services of the ILO if it feels that they could provide technical assistance in the above-mentioned fields.
