Convenio sobre los trabajadores migrantes (revisado), 1949 (núm. 97) - Camerún (Ratificación : 1962)

The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its report.

1. Article 9 of the Convention. The Committee notes that the Government has not been able to indicate the limits set by national laws and regulations concerning the transfer of the earnings and savings of migrants for employment. It hopes that the Government will make every effort to provide the above information and copies of any relevant texts with its next report.

2. In view of the increasingly important role played by private recruitment agencies in the process of international migration, the Committee requests the Government to indicate the measures which have been taken or are envisaged to regulate the activities of these agencies with a view to protecting migrant workers against abuses and misleading information. Please also indicate the penalties envisaged in the event of violations and misleading propaganda.

3. See the comments under Convention No. 143.
