The Committee recalls its previous observation in which it expressed concern over the slow progress made with respect to the adoption of legislation that would include measures against clandestine migration movements and provide for equal treatment and opportunity between migrant workers and nationals. The Committee had expressed the hope that the revised legislation would also impose penal sanctions against the organizers of clandestine movements of migrants or against those who employ such workers, in accordance with Articles 3(b) and 6(1) of the Convention, and that it would ensure that migrant workers have free choice of employment in accordance with Articles 10 and 14(a) of the Convention. The Committee notes the Government’s statement that the new Employment Act, which is currently awaiting Presidential assent, will cover the concerns raised by the Committee, and that a copy of the text will be supplied to the Office. The Committee looks forward to receiving a copy of the new Employment Act and hopes that it will be able to note at its next session significant progress with respect to the matters raised above.
