The Committee requests information on the implementation in practice of the Law on the Employment of the Population; on the functioning of the employment service; on the organization of public works; on the contribution of the privatisation programme, agricultural reforms, and the introduction of a social safety net to objectives of the Convention; and on the education, training and retraining for the unemployed.
