The Committee notes with regret that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in reply to its earlier comments. It notes, in particular, the information concerning the composition and functions of the tripartite National Labour Advisory Council, which, according to the Government's statement in the report, is also consulted with regard to the policy, organization and operation of the employment service.

Article 10 of the Convention. The Committee notes the Government's declaration to the effect that efforts will be made to encourage full use of employment service facilities by employers and workers on a voluntary basis. It would be grateful if the Government would indicate, in its next report, the arrangements made nationally and locally in cooperation with employers' and workers' organizations to encourage full voluntary use of employment service facilities, as required under this Article. It would also like the Government to supply statistical information concerning the number of applications for employment received, the number of vacancies notified and the number of persons placed in employment by public employment offices, in accordance with Part IV of the report form.
