The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation which read as follows:

1. The Committee notes with interest the adoption of Republic Act No. 7877 (the Anti-Sexual Harassment Act, 1995), which makes unlawful all forms of sexual harassment in the employment, education or training environment. The Committee also notes with interest the issuance of Administrative Order No. 250, which lays down the Rules and Regulations implementing Act No. 7877 in the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE). The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the practical application of the legislation, such as any reports issued by the Committees on Decorum and Investigation, established in the DOLE, and any statistics maintained on the number of complaints received by these Committees. The Committee also asks the Government to provide information on the implementation of the project to eliminate sexual harassment, developed by the Bureau of Women and Young Workers of the DOLE, in coordination with the ILO. 2. The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the very near future.
