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:

1. The Committee notes that the situation of aliens was appreciably modified by the law of 11 May 1998 that partially replaces the previous legislation. The Committee notes that the new legislation introduces new types of temporary residence permits while also increasing restrictions against illegal immigration. Regarding the restrictions of entry for foreigners, the Committee notes with interest that this law restricted the scope of the exception to the general obligation to substantiate unfavourable individual administrative decisions as regards the refusal to grant a visa with respect to certain categories of persons. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would supply information on the impact of the new provisions. Please also supply copies of any relevant decisions of courts of law or other tribunals regarding migrant workers.

2. The Committee notes the developments concerning the situation of persons in an irregular situation and the issuance of the circular of 24 June 1997, which called on the préfets to review the situation of the category of sans papiers. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide further particulars on the results of the procedure of regularization of persons in an irregular situation carried out by the Government.

3. The Committee notes the information and statistical data supplied in the Government’s report. It asks the Government to continue to provide general information on the manner in which the Convention is applied, in accordance with Part V of the report form.
