Article 6 of the Convention. See the comments under Article 6 of Convention No. 77, as follows:

Article 6 of the Convention. Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes the information supplied by the Government in its latest report. It notes in particular the efforts made concerning the vocational guidance and the physical and vocational rehabilitation of the disabled, and particularly of minors. It refers in this connection, to its comments on the application of Convention No. 159.

Article 7, paragraph 2. The Committee notes the information according to which the draft revision of the Children's Code was to enshrine the principle of compulsory medical examination for all categories of activity without exception, including itinerant trading and occupations carried on in the streets. It notes that it is also intended that supervisory procedures will be established by the Ministries and municipal councils concerned. The Committee trusts that the process of revising the Children's Code, to which reference is made in the comments concerning Article 6, will be rapidly completed and that the new text will extend medical examination to the categories concerned and will determine the special supervisory measures set out in Article 7, paragraph 2. It hopes that the Government will be in a position to supply in its next report the replies that are awaited to the questions that have been raised for several years.
