Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1997, publiée 86ème session CIT (1998)

Convention (n° 102) concernant la sécurité sociale (norme minimum), 1952 - Sénégal (Ratification: 1962)

The Committee notes that the Government's reports supplied in April and December 1997, contain no reply to its comments. It hopes that the next report will contain full information on the following points:

Part VII (Family benefit), Article 44 of the Convention. Please provide the information required under this Article of the Convention in the report form approved by the Governing Body, indicating in particular: (i) the total value of the family benefits granted for the children of persons protected; (ii) the total number of children of all persons protected or of all residents; (iii) the wage of an ordinary adult male labourer defined in accordance with Article 66 of the Convention.

Part VIII (Maternity benefit), Article 49. In view of the Government's repeated promises to ensure that prenatal and postnatal care are provided free of charge, as is already the case for confinement, the Committee once again expresses the hope that the Government will take the necessary measures in the near future to ensure the application of the Convention which lays down that this care shall be provided free of charge, and that the next report will indicate progress made in this respect.

[The Government is asked to report in detail in 1998.]
