Article 14(a) of the Convention. Restrictions concerning employment and geographical mobility within the country. The Committee notes that the Government states, once again, that although Decree No. 77-45 of 4 March 1977, regulating the movement of foreign nationals, subjects foreign workers to special authorization to leave their town of residence in Benin, the Decree is in fact no longer applied and that in practice foreign nationals can move freely throughout the national territory. The Committee again urges the Government to take the necessary measures to formally repeal the restriction on the movement of migrant workers provided under Decree No. 77-45 of 4 March 1977, and also to indicate the obstacles to the repeal of the said Decree.
The Committee is raising other matters in a request addressed directly to the Government.
[The Government is asked to reply in full to the present comments in 2024.]
