Convention (n° 13) sur la céruse (peinture), 1921 - Afghanistan (Ratification: 1939)

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 notes the Government’s stated intention to submit a complete report on the application of the present Convention in consultation with the Ministry of Public Health, Housing and Urban Development, the Ministry of Commerce and the Municipalities. The Committee also notes the observations submitted by the All Afghanistan Federation of Trade Unions (AAFTU) concerning the absence of legislation giving effect to the Convention and concerning the alleged non-application of the Convention. Against this background, and taking into account the Committee’s previous comments, the Committee requests the Government to submit a detailed report on the application of this Convention, including a reply to the observations raised by the All Afghanistan Federation of Trade Unions.
