Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2000, published 89th ILC session (2001)

Social Policy (Basic Aims and Standards) Convention, 1962 (No. 117) - Malta (Ratification: 1988)

The Committee notes with regret that the Government’s report contains no reply to previous comments. It hopes that the next report will include full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which reads as follows:

Article 8, paragraph 2, of the Convention.  Further to its previous direct request, the Committee notes the copies of social security agreements that Malta has entered into with Canada, Australia and the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya, annexed to the Government’s report.

Article 8, paragraph 3.  In the absence of a response in the Government’s report, the Committee again requests the Government to indicate whether measures have been taken to facilitate the transfer of migrant workers’ wages and savings.
