The Committee takes note of the Government's report and of the information concerning the scope of section 2 of the Small Tradesmen and Artisans Act, No. 507, in relation to Article 1 of the Convention.
With regard to the exclusion of apprentices under the age of 18 years from the scope of the Labour Act, the Committee takes note of the Government's explanations and the provisions mentioned in its report regarding the health of apprentices. However, it is not clear from these provisions that full effect is given to the Convention. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide additional information on the measures issued under section 10 of Act No. 3308 of 5 June 1968, and recalls that apprentices are covered by the provisions of the Convention and, accordingly, are subject to a full medical examination in accordance with the procedures and conditions laid down by these provisions.
