____
* Following a decision taken by the Committee of Ministers in 2006, the provisions of both the European Social Charter and the Revised Charter have been divided into four thematic groups. States present a report on the provisions relating to one of the four thematic groups on an annual basis. Consequently each provision of the Charter will be reported on once every four years.
