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:

The Committee takes note of the information supplied by the Government in reply to its previous comments.

It notes, in particular, that with the introduction of the "Jobmobile" the employment services have been made available to all the population in the outlying areas in New Providence as well as the Family Islands.

Articles 4 and 5 of the Convention. The Committee notes a statement in the Government's report according to which the tripartite Joint Advisory Committee provided for under section 4 of the Industrial Relations Act, 1970, has been reactivated. It asks the Government to indicate whether the representatives of employers and workers on this Committee are appointed in equal numbers after consultation with representative organizations of employers and workers. Please also indicate whether this Committee is consulted in regard to the policy, organization and operation of the employment service.

Articles 7 and 8. In its earlier comments the Committee noted the general statement in the Government's report for the period ending 30 June 1985, according to which arrangements had been made to facilitate specialization by occupation and industries, disabled workers were encouraged to register with the Placement Service and the Youth Employment Service was fully functional. The Committee cannot but reiterate its hope that the Government will provide more detailed and practical information concerning these arrangements and the manner in which they give effect to these Articles. For instance, please indicate the occupation, industries and special categories of applicants for which specialized arrangements have been made.
