The Committee notes with regret that the Government’s report has not been received. 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:

The Committee notes the Government’s report for the period from 1 June 2001 to 1 June 2002, which does not mention any progress in bringing the national legislation into conformity with the requirements of the Convention as regards Part X (Survivors’ benefit), Articles 60 to 64 and Part XIII (Common provisions), Articles 70 and 71, paragraph 1 (in relation with Part VII (Family benefit), Article 39), on which is has been commenting for several years. It also notes that the Government failed to comply with its obligation to provide a detailed report for the period 1996-2001 containing the information and statistics requested in the report form adopted by the Governing Body of the ILO. In these conditions, the Committee trusts that a detailed report will be provided for examination at its next session in November-December 2003 and that it will also contain full particulars on the progress made by the Commission for the Reform of Social Security, established by Ministerial Order No. 12/CAB-MIN/TPS/AR/KF/038/2002 of 23 February 2002, a copy of which was provided by the Government, in view of the fact that this Commission is entrusted with updating the draft Social Security Code and other legislative texts, and for issuing opinions and views on any matter related to social security.
