The Committee takes note of the information supplied by the Government in reply to its previous comments.

The Committee notes with interest the provisions of Decree No. 90-1292 of 7 August 1990 that concern the organisation and activities of the Directorate for the Education and Training of Women (which now come under the Ministry of Vocational Training and Employment), as well as a number of projects and programmes in this area (training programme drawn up during the national seminar entitled "Girls in the rural sector, co-ordinated training, better preparation for life, more effective participation in development" (Tunis, 6-8 March 1989); project "Inclusion of population studies in training programmes for girls"; establishment of a pilot training centre for girls in the rural sector; project to set up a training centre for women trainers in industry; national project to promote the training of women and girls taking account of all the specificities of the target populations). With regard to the training and participation of girls in trades and occupations that are not traditionally exercised by women, the Government indicates that in the last few years, the number of girls has increased particularly in data processing, accounting and radio and television repairs and maintenance. The Government also indicates that the Ministry of Vocational Training and Employment is in the process of reforming the national vocational training system, and is taking not only general measures but also specific measures for females with particular needs.

The Committee asks the Government in its future reports to provide information on results and progress in this area.
