The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its report. It also notes with interest the mission carried out by the Office in July 2005, and the information provided to it by the technical committee responsible for reports. The Committee notes that the Libyan Government welcomes the mission and provides assurances of its commitment to comply with the obligations deriving from the Convention. The Committee notes with interest the Government’s request to provide it with further technical assistance to formulate the legislation and to bring such legislation as well as the decisions taken by the Government into conformity with the ILO social security Conventions. It hopes that, as a result of this assistance, the Government will take the necessary measures to give full effect in law and practice to the provisions of the Convention on which it has been commenting.

Part II (Invalidity benefit), Article 9; Part III (Old-age benefit), Article 16; and Part IV (Survivors’ benefit), Article 22, of the Convention. With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes the Government’s indication, according to which it acknowledges that, thanks to the explanations provided by the ILO mission, it was possible for the Government to provide the information requested on the amount of the different benefits. In this regard, the Committee notes the statistical information on the number and amount of social security benefits and the examples provided so as to clarify the provisions of Social Security Act No. 13 of 1980. With regard to old-age and invalidity benefits, the Committee notes with satisfaction that, according to the information provided, the amount of these benefits attains the level prescribed by the Convention.

The Committee is raising a number of issues in a direct request and hopes that the Government will provide the information requested for examination at its next session.
