Referring to its observation, the Committee trusts that changes will be made to the legislation with a view to ensuring that full effect be given to the Convention with regard to the following points.

Article 4 of the Convention (branch (g)) (Employment injury benefit). Section 27 of Act No. 65-66 of 24 June 1965 on industrial accident compensation should be supplemented by an express provision that in the case of a victim of an employment injury who was a national of a State which has accepted the obligations of the Convention concerning employment injury benefit, his dependants (survivors), even if they were resident abroad at the time of the victim’s death and continue to reside abroad, shall receive survivor’s benefits, if it is proved that they were actually dependants at the time of his death.

Article 5 (branch (e)) (Old-age benefit). The national legislation should be amended to provide for payment of old-age benefit in case of residence abroad, both to nationals of the Central African Republic and to nationals of any other member State that has accepted the obligations of the Convention concerning branch (e).

Article 6 of the Convention. Section 1 of Act No. 65-57 of 3 June 1965 on family benefits needs to be amended so as to provide express guarantees, both for nationals of the Central African Republic and to nationals of any other Member which has accepted the obligations of the Convention for branch (i) concerning family benefits, for payment of family benefits for children residing on the territory of such other Member, under conditions and within limits to be agreed upon by the Members concerned.

Articles 7 and 8 of the Convention. According to the information provided by the Government in its last report, the Committee notes that no multilateral or bilateral social security agreements have yet been concluded by the Central African Republic with any foreign countries. The Committee recalls, however, that in its previous report the Government indicated that draft social security agreements were being discussed at expert level with the Congo, France and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The Committee again asks the Government to indicate in its next report any progress made with a view to guaranteeing, through the conclusion of bilateral or multilateral social security agreements with other States concerned which have ratified Convention No. 118, the preservation of rights, in accordance with the provisions of Article 7 of the Convention.
