The Committee notes with regret that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its 2001 direct request, which read as follows.

The Committee notes the information contained in the Government’s report for the period ending 31 May 2001.

1. Articles 1 and 2 of the Convention. The Government states that there is insufficient data on unemployment in the districts, due to sporadic reporting, but the Government suspects that there is a high level of hidden unemployment. It has increased the number of courses offered to obtain a qualification and decreased social expenditure. The Government intends to implement Suliaq, a statistical analysis instrument. It is also planning to implement Isikkivik, an electronic job bank. The Committee requests that the Government supply data on labour market trends and further information on progress made in monitoring and analysing labour market trends. Please also provide further details on how employment policies and programmes are kept under review within the framework of a coordinated economic and social policy.

2. Article 3. The Committee notes that the Government set up the National Labour Market Council in 1998. The Council includes representatives of employers and workers, and discusses employment-related issues such as qualifications, youth services, job placement resources, and unemployment insurance. It addresses its recommendations to the Minister of Social Affairs and Labour. The recommendations have been implemented or are in the process of being implemented. Please continue to supply information on the activities of the Council and on how its recommendations are taken into account in formulating, implementing and evaluating employment policies and programmes.
