The Committee notes that the Government's report contains no reply to previous comments. It must therefore repeat its previous observation which read as follows:
The Committee notes the Government's detailed report containing information on the reorganization of the National Manpower Office (ONAMO). It notes in particular that the ONAMO has been replaced by the National Employment Agency (ANEM) established by Executive Decree No. 90.259 of 8 September 1990. It also notes the statistical information on the number of applications for employment, vacancies notified and persons placed in employment for the period 1990-92 supplied by the Government with the report. Articles 4 and 5 of the Convention. The Committee notes that the ANEM is administered by an administrative board which, under section 14 of the pertinent decree, includes six representatives of occupational organizations of public and private employers, three elected representatives of ANEM workers and one representative of each national association of employment seekers up to a maximum of five. With reference to its previous observations, the Committee wishes to recall that "the representatives of employers and workers" on the advisory committees stipulated in the Articles of the Convention "shall be appointed in equal numbers after consultation with representative organizations of employers and workers". It reiterates its hope that the Government will adopt in the near future the necessary measures to bring the national regulations into conformity with those Articles of the Convention which are designed to ensure that there is cooperation between representatives of employers and workers in the organization and functioning of the employment service and in the formulation of the employment service policy. Article 6(d). The Government states in its report that the employment services are in charge of all the activities laid down in Article 6, with the exception of those listed in 6(d). The Committee would be grateful if the Government would describe in its next report the measures taken to apply this provision of the Convention which lays down that the employment service must "cooperate in the administration of unemployment insurance and assistance and of other measures for the relief of the unemployed". Article 7. In its report, the Government highlights the difficulties encountered in applying the provisions of this Article concerning, particularly, specialization by occupations and by industries within the various employment offices, and difficulties relating to the problem of lack of supervision in the employment services which are being set up in the various regions of the country. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would give detailed information in its next report on the measures taken to apply this Article and specify the particular occupations, industries and categories of applicants for employment for whom special measures have been taken or are envisaged.
