Part II. Progressive abolition of fee-charging employment agencies conducted with a view to profit and regulation of other agencies. The Committee has noted that, under the terms of the Labour Code, employment services are free of charge and are provided by the responsible services of the Ministry of Labour and Employment or by any other public organization under its control or any private organization duly recognized by the responsible authorities. It requests the Government to provide, in its next report, general indications on the way in which the Convention is applied in practice, in particular with regard to the recruitment or placing of workers abroad. It recalls that the ILO Governing Body invites the States parties to Convention No. 96 to contemplate ratifying, as appropriate, the Private Employment Agencies Convention, 1997 (No. 181), the ratification of which will, ipso jure, involve the immediate denunciation of Convention No. 96 (document GB.273/LILS/4(Rev.1), 273rd Session, Geneva, November 1998).
