Forced Labour Convention, 1930 (No. 29) - Zambia (Ratification: 1964)

The Committee notes that the Government's most recent report does not supply the information previously requested. The Committee hopes that the Government will soon supply: (a) copies of the statutory instruments made under section 12, subsection 1, of the Defence Act to regulate the commisioning of officers, their terms of service, appointment, transfer, retirement and resignation; and (b) information on the practical application of the National Service Act, including copies of any statutory instruments made under its section 7, paragraph 2, and section 9, and information on any measures taken or envisaged in relation to the National Service, in the light also of the Special Youth Schemes Recommendation, 1970 (No. 136), to ensure the observance of the Convention.
