Observation (CEACR) - adopted 1993, published 80th ILC session (1993)

Forced Labour Convention, 1930 (No. 29) - Zambia (Ratification: 1964)

In its previous comments, the Committee observed that regulations 40 and 41 of the Preservation of Public Security Regulations, under which public officers and employees in certain services may be prohibited from leaving their employment, were not consistent with the Convention.

It notes the indications in the Government's reports for 1991 that regulation 40 has been revoked by statutory instrument No. 181 of 1990 and that the repeal of regulation 41 was being examined.

The Committee notes this information with interest. It hopes that the Government will provide a copy of statutory instrument No. 181 of 1990, together with information on any changes relating to regulation 41 referred to above.
