Part III of the Convention. The Committee notes the Government's report and the information it contains in reply to its previous request. It would be grateful if the Government would supply additional information in its next report on the following points.

Article 1, paragraph 1(a). The Committee notes the indication that temporary work enterprises come under a different legal regime from fee-charging employment agencies. It recalls that these enterprises fall into the same category as fee-charging employment agencies conducted with a view to profit as defined by the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to indicate the manner in which the different legal regime to which it refers, regulates temporary work enterprises so as to be in conformity with the provisions of the Convention.

Article 10. The Committee notes the adoption of Decree No. 96-193 of 7 March 1996 regarding fee-charging employment agencies. It observes that under section 9 of this Decree, fee-charging employment agencies must file a "declaration of existence", renewable every three years. In this connection, the Committee recalls that the Convention stipulates that these agencies must possess a yearly licence renewable at the discretion of the competent authority. It asks the Government to indicate the measures taken or envisaged to give full effect to this provision of the Convention.

Article 14. The Committee notes that the Agency for the Study and Promotion of Employment (AGEPE) is responsible for monitoring fee-charging employment agencies. It requests the Government to describe the measures taken by the AGEPE to ensure monitoring of the operations of fee-charging employment agencies.

Part V of the report form. Please supply all useful information on the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice, in particular including available statistics on the activities of fee-charging employment agencies, and on the number and nature of the contraventions which may have been reported.
