1. Article 1(b) of the Convention. National Youth Service. The Committee noted earlier that, according to the Government, Act No. 82-87 of 15 August 1983 concerning the National Youth Service had been repealed and requested the Government to supply a copy of the text repealing the Act. The Committee notes that no such text was attached to the Government’s latest report and requests the Government to supply a copy of the repealing text so that it can ensure conformity of national legislation with the Convention on this matter.

2. Participation in development. In its previous comments, the Committee referred to section L6.2 of the Labour Code under which the expression "forced labour" does not include work of public interest required by virtue of legislative provisions concerning the organization of defence, establishment of a national service or participation in development. The Committee noted that in ratifying the Convention the State undertakes to suppress and not to make use of any form of forced or compulsory labour as a means of mobilizing and using labour for purposes of economic development. The Committee requests the Government to indicate the measures taken or contemplated to ensure compliance with the Convention on this matter.

The Committee also requests the Government to supply information on the implementing texts of section L6.2 of the Labour Code and in particular on the requirements concerning labour imposed for purposes of economic development, the forms of such participation and the number of persons concerned.
