1. The Committee notes with interest that a new Labour Code is currently being drafted, revising the Labour Code adopted in 1992, and taking into consideration the Committee's previous comments on the need to expand the list of prohibited grounds of discrimination to include "social origin". The Committee requests the Government to inform it of the adoption of the draft which, it notes, has been submitted to the International Labour Office for technical advice. It would also appreciate receiving a copy of the text when adopted.

2. The Committee is addressing a request directly to the Government on a certain number of other points.
