The Committee notes 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 previous direct request, which read as follows:

Article 3(c) of the Convention. The Committee notes that the amendments to the Family Benefits Code of 1967 to which the Government has been referring since 1976 are still being drafted.

With reference to its previous comments, the Committee again requests the Government to state how maternity benefits are provided, in accordance with the Convention, for women who do not fulfil the conditions concerning the qualifying period laid down by section 25 of that Code (at least six months of wage-earning activity).

The Committee hopes that section 25 of that Code will soon be amended as planned, in order to bring it into conformity with the Labour Code of 1974 and the Convention, which make no provision for such conditions. It requests the Government, in its next report, to provide information on any progress made in this respect.
