The Committee notes that the Government's report contains no reply to its previous comments. 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:

Article 6, paragraph 1(b), of the Convention. In relation to the Committee's previous comments indicating that equality of treatment should be assured to all migrant workers regardless of a reciprocity agreement, the Government indicated in its reports received in 1987 and 1988 that it had decided to undertake appropriate studies to bring the legislation into conformity with the Convention on this point. In its last report the Government states that the new Constitution of 1988 guarantees equality of rights and treatment to foreign workers who enjoy the same rights in social security as nationals. The Committee trusts that the next report will contain information on the measures taken as a result of the studies mentioned earlier to guarantee to all immigrants equality of treatment in respect of unemployment and family benefits, in accordance with the Convention and the new Constitution.
