Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1995, published 82nd ILC session (1995)

Forced Labour Convention, 1930 (No. 29) - Democratic Republic of the Congo (Ratification: 1960)

The Committee notes with regret that no report has been received from the Government. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

In its previous comments the Committee asked the Government to provide a copy of the provisions on civic rights and civic and military obligations, to be adopted under article 87(1) of the Constitution, as amended by Act No. 90-002 of 5 July 1990.

The Committee noted the information provided by the Government in its report for the period ending June 1992, to the effect that the Supreme National Conference has adopted the Act to issue constitutional provisions concerning the period of transition, and which for the time being replaces the Constitution. The Committee again expresses the hope that the Government will report on any developments regarding the Constitution and legislation, which are relevant to its previous requests.
