The Committee is bound to observe from the information communicated by the Government in reply to its previous comments, that the necessary legislative measures to formally extend the scope of the Legislative Decree of 22 August 1974 (organising social security) to all agricultural wage-earners, including dayworkers and temporary workers, have still not been adopted. It notes, however, the Government's statement that radical changes in this area are envisaged in the context of the labour legislation reform requested by the World Bank as part of the Structural Adjustment Programme being implemented in Rwanda since October 1990.

The Committee therefore trusts that the Government will do its utmost to ensure that the national legislation is brought formally into line with the Convention which was ratified 30 years ago, by explicitly extending the scope of the above-mentioned Legislative Decree to all agricultural workers, including dayworkers and temporary workers. In this connection, the Committee suggests that the Government might wish to avail itself of technical assistance from the International Labour Office.

[The Government is asked to report in detail for the period ending 30 June 1992.]
