Convenio sobre el desempleo, 1934 (núm. 44) - Polinesia Francesa

The Committee refers to the comments that it has been making for several years, in which it pointed out the need to take appropriate measures to compensate persons who are involuntarily unemployed. It notes from the Government's reply that the territorial regulations determining the modality of implementing the principle of assistance to persons who are involuntarily unemployed, as set out in section 48 of Act No. 86-845 of 17 July 1986, have not yet been adopted. The Committee points out in this connection that in the absence of texts to implement the principle of assistance in the event of unemployment, the Convention is not applied. In these circumstances, the Committee is bound once again to express the hope that the regulations determining the modality of implementing the right to assistance in the even of unemployment will be adopted in near future, in accordance with the Convention, particularly since, by virtue of section 126 of Act No. 86-845 of 1986, these regulations should have been published prior to 19 July 1987. Furthermore, the Committee hopes that the above regulations will, in accordance with Article 3 of the Convention, provide for payment of benefit or an allowance in cases of partial unemployment. It requests the Government to supply the text of the regulations as soon as they are adopted.
