Convenio sobre el examen médico de los menores (trabajos no industriales), 1946 (núm. 78) - Paraguay (Ratificación : 1966)

Article 6 of the Convention. See comments made under Convention No. 77, as follows:

2. Article 6, paragraphs 1 and 2. For a number of years the Committee has drawn the Government's attention to the need to adopt appropriate measures for the vocational guidance and physical and vocational rehabilitation of children and young persons found by medical examination to be unsuited to certain types of work, or to have physical handicaps or limitations, and for cooperation between the labour, health, education and social services, in order to determine the nature and extent of such measures and to carry them out.

In its communication at the end of 1992, the Government stated that in order to partly resolve the problem it would be necessary to bring into force a ministerial resolution, the draft of which was attached to the communication. The Committee noted the text and indicated that it included provisions which could give effect to the two paragraphs cited of Article 6 of the Convention. Since no information has been given on the approval of this resolution, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would inform it whether the resolution in question has been adopted and supply a copy of the text.
