Further to its observation, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide the following additional information that had been requested by the ILO mission team before it departed from the country in November 1999: labour inspection reports including statistics on violations of laws, complaints and remedial actions taken and labour force participation rates of men and women by sector.

The Committee notes that the technical advisory mission which visited the country in October-November 1999 was informed of restrictions on recruitment of recognized minorities to be officers in the disciplinary and armed forces, or to be in career posts in these services.
