The Committee notes the Government’s report and the attached documentation.

1. The Committee notes Act No. 25/PR/94 of 22 July 1994 adopting a population policy declaration and Act No. 19/PR/95 of 4 September 1995, which declares a policy to integrate women in development (IDF). The Committee notes that the policy on population has the objective of eliminating all forms of discrimination against women, which hinder their integration into the development process. This policy promotes awareness raising of women’s rights as well as adapting education and training to employment needs in the private and public sectors. The Committee notes that the IDF policy includes objectives and measures regarding training and employment of women. The Committee asks the Government to provide information on the measures taken or contemplated under these two policies and the results obtained with regard to improving women’s position in the labour market and guaranteeing equal remuneration for work of equal value.

2. The Committee notes the report on the survey on the application of Conventions Nos. 111 and 100 in 42 enterprises. It notes that the study found no discrimination in the surveyed enterprises in relation either to recruitment, promotion and training or to remuneration. The Committee would be grateful if the Government could provide statistical data in support of these findings, in particular data on the number of men and women recruited, promoted and trained, as well as their occupations and wage levels, so that the findings can be evaluated. Moreover, noting the study’s indication that in 98 per cent of the surveyed enterprises wages are determined through the wage scale established on the basis of professional categories contained in the General Collective Agreement and its annexes, the Committee asks the Government to provide the wage scale and the Agreement. It also invites the Government, in so far as possible, to collect and provide statistical information, disaggregated by sex, also on employment in accordance with its 1998 general observation on this Convention.

3. The Committee notes the Ministerial Order No. 300/MEN/DG/94 of the Ministry of National Education of 30 December 1994, which establishes the technical unit to promote girls’ education under the responsibility of the Director-General of the Ministry. It notes that traditional attitudes which prevented girls from going to school have changed in the areas covered and that in primary school the gap between boys and girls decreased, while at secondary and tertiary levels the presence of female students remained low. The Committee encourages the Government to continue supplying information on education and relevant promotional measures.

4. The Committee also notes the information on the coordination unit for women’s associations ("Cellule de Liaison et d’Information des Associations Feminines") and invites the Government to provide information on its collaboration with women’s committees of trade unions and on the activities it carries out in relation to the promotion of equality in employment and occupation and, in particular, to equal remuneration for work of equal value.
