Migration for Employment Convention (Revised), 1949 (No. 97) - Norway (Ratification: 1955)

The Committee notes with interest the adoption of further legal and practical measures designed to promote and guarantee equality of opportunity and treatment between nationals and immigrants. It also notes from the Report No. 39 on Immigration Policy submitted to the Storting (Parliament) that special measures are foreseen to combat persisting difficulties and various types of discrimination in employment and accommodation. In this connection, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would continue in its future reports to supply information on any progress achieved to ensure in practice equal access to employment and accommodation for migrant workers as provided by Article 6, paragraph 1(a)(i)(iii), of the Convention.
