The Committee takes note of the communication dated 23 August 2002 from the Trade Union Federation of Ukraine containing comments on the application of the Convention. A copy of the communication was forwarded to the Government on 26 October 2002 for any comments it might wish to make on the matters raised therein.

The Trade Union Federation of Ukraine indicates that child labour is an increasingly frequent problem and that there are child workers under the age of 15 in the Ukraine. In most cases, the children work above all in the informal sector, where labour relations are non-existent and the Government has virtually no control over working conditions. The Trade Union Federation of Ukraine also indicate that there are cases of the use of children for prostitution or pornography in Ukraine and, that this not only concerns young people of 15 years of age but also children of 10 years of age.

The Committee requests the Government to provide information on measures taken or envisaged to prohibit the use, procuring or offering of children under the age of 18 years for prostitution, for the production of pornography or for pornographic performances.

The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.
