Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1993, Publicación: 80ª reunión CIT (1993)

Convenio sobre la igualdad de trato (seguridad social), 1962 (núm. 118) - Francia (Ratificación : 1974)

Article 6 (Provision of family allowance for children residing abroad). In reply to the Committee's previous comments, the Government indicates that, in the context of the EEC - and particularly with regard to Ireland, Italy and the Netherlands which are among the States that have accepted the obligations of Conventions No. 118 in respect of branch (i) - virtually all French family benefits are provided to family members who have remained abroad while the worker is employed in France. Furthermore, in such cases France's bilateral agreements with Cape Verde, Mauritania and Tunisia provide for the payment of family allowances specified by the agreements. The Committee asks the Government to continue to provide information, in its future reports, on any new agreements concluded to this effect with other member States that have accepted the obligations of the Convention for the family benefit branch.
