The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government in reply to its previous comments. It notes in particular that the National Employment Agency, established in accordance with Legislative Decree No. 80 of 27 June 1977, has been abolished and that its responsibilities have been included in the planned reorganization of the Ministry of Labour, the examination of which will be completed in the near future. The Government indicates that the functions of the Employment Service of the Ministry, and those of the regional offices of the Ministry in the Governerates are limited by virtue of Decree No. 8352 of 30 December 1961. The Committee also notes the adoption of Order No. 213-1, of 3 June 1992, respecting private employment agencies and private establishments which deal with the placement in employment of Lebanese citizens and foreigners, whose activities will be controlled by the labour inspection services.

The Committee also notes that the Government also stated in its reply to the general direct request of 1992 concerning the application of ratified international labour Conventions, that a special commission has been established to examine the domestic legislative provisions required to be taken to give effect to ratified Conventions.

The Committee therefore hopes that the appropriate measures will be taken with a view to giving full effect to this Convention, which lays down the obligation to maintain a free public employment service, and that the Government will supply information in its next report on any progress achieved in this respect. The Committee requests the Government to supply the text of the draft reorganization of the Ministry of Labour referred to above, as soon as it is adopted, and refers the Government to the comments made by the Committee on the application of the Employment Policy Convention (No. 122).
