The Committee notes the Government's report and the reports attached on the activities of the Employment and Vocational Training Agency for the years 1995 and 1996, and the review of the activities for 1996 of the Employment, Vocational Training and Youth Social Integration Delegation. It notes that the detailed information provided covers the vacancies and job applications dealt with by the employment service and the employment assistance measures implemented during the period.
