  • Investment in the Rights of the Child in Pakistan
    The Institute for Social Justice (ISJ) Pakistan Submission Investment in the rights of the child in Pakistan To the Office of the High Commissioner of Human Rights By the Institute for Social Justice (ISJ) Pakistan1(www.isj.org.pk) 1The ISJ acknowledges support of Abdullah Khoso (abdullahkhoso[at]hotmail.com) in drafting this brief submission for the OHCHR 1 | Page The Institute for Social Justice (ISJ) Pakistan Introduction This brief paper highlights the main challenges related to the mobilization, allocation and spending of resources for children. It also includes some other details. The paper is compiled on secondary sources that include reports by governments’, non-governmental organizations and the media. In 2009, the Committee on the Rights of the Child in its Concluding Observations and Recommendations against Pakistan’s 3rd and 4th combined periodic report to the UNCRC welcomed Pakistan’s pledge to increase allocation of resources for children especially in the field of health and education. The Committee however, had expressed serious concerns over extremely low budgetary allocations for children, which undermines Pakistan’s “prospects of meeting its objectives to gradually raise allocations to education to 5 percent of GDP by 2010 and to increase annually the allocations to the health sector by 16 percent until satisfactory health services and prevention measures are accomplished”.2 The Committee also regretted over huge disparity in resource allocation, which served to hinder full and equal access to services and institutions to all children. In light of Article 4 of the UNCRC, the Committee recommended Pakistan to effectively increase budgetary allocations for all children with special considerations to refugee and internally displaced children, and children with disabilities.

  • Intergovernmental Fiscal Transfers in Asia: Current Practice and Challenges for the Future
    Intergovernmental Fiscal Transfers in Asia: Current Practice and Challenges for the Future Edited by: Paul Smoke and Yun-Hwan Kim Foreword In recent years, the issue of intergovernmental fiscal transfers has re- ceived increasing attention among policymakers for various reasons. These include (i) disparity in delivery of social services between regions, (ii) economic gap between growth centers and lagging areas, and (iii) progress in economic and political decentralization. While strengthening institutions, functions, and finances of state/local governments is becoming increasingly important, devel- oping a more productive and equitable intergovernmental transfer scheme has likewise become a priority issue. The issue of allocating national resources to local communities has been a major policy agenda as subnational governments play a stronger role in carrying out socioeconomic policies. For a long time, the governments in the Asia-Pacific region have made enormous efforts to minimize distortions and defects in the countries’ fiscal transfer schemes. However, existing disparities in production growth, fiscal bases, and the extent of public services call for greater governmental interven- tions including a reform in central-state fiscal relations. An expeditious reform aimed at addressing the underlying fiscal and economic imbalances and ensur- ing equitable delivery of public services across states would place powerful impetus to the long-term socioeconomic progress. The new focus on the greater fiscal role by local governments has been

University of Sargodha, Pakistan. b Probation Officer, District Courts Khushab. Punjab Home Department, Pakistan. ABSTRACT Since few decades ago, the issue of child labour has detained the global attention. This study highlights the supply side determinants of child labor in case of Punjab, Pakistan. Multiple indicator cluster survey 2007-08 for Punjab was used. Probit model was used to capture the objectives of this research. Results shows that the absence of mother’s education, household head’s education, large family size, low level of family income, less education of child etc. were the factors that pushed the children into work that is often damaging to their development. Key words: Child labour, MICS, Pakistan. 1. INTRODUCTION Among the major international agents in the field, in particular the ILO, UNICEF, and the World Bank, a consensus has been reached to focus efforts to curb the worst forms of child labour because it violates the basic human rights of children and deprives them from education, better health and other leisure of life. It not only affects their physical, psychological and spiritual life, but it is also harmful for economic growth of the country.

  • How Child Labour and Child Schooling Interact with Adult Labour
    How Child Labour and Child Schooling Interact with Adult Labour by Ranjan Ray* School of Economics University of Tasmania GPO Box 252-85 Hobart Tas 7001 Email: [email protected] Fax: +61 (0)3 6226 7587 Tel: +61 (0)3 6226 2275 *Part of this research was carried out during the author’s study leave spent at Cornell University. It was sponsored by a World Bank project on ‘Intra Household Decision Making, Literacy and Child Labour’. The author is grateful to Kaushik Basu for comments and suggestions, and to Geoffrey Lancaster for skilful and painstaking research assistance. Abstract This paper tests, on Peruvian and Pakistani data, the hypotheses that there is a positive association between child labour hours and poverty, and a negative association between child schooling and poverty. Both these hypotheses are confirmed on Pakistani data, but not on Peruvian data. The paper offers explanation for these divergent results. The reduction in poverty rates due to income from child labour is greater in Pakistan than in Peru. Rising adult male wages significantly reduce the labour hours of Peruvian girls. Strong complementarity exists between the adult female and girl child labour markets in Pakistan. The data sets agree on the positive role that increasing adult education can play in improving child welfare. JEL Classification: C2, D1, I3, J2, J7, O1 Key words: Child Labour, Luxury Axiom, Subsistence Consumption, Parental Altruism 1. Introduction There has been, in recent years, a growing interest in the subject of child labour among academics, professionals and the media. Though the ILO (1996a)’s estimates on labour force participation rates for children aged 10-14 years show a declining trend, in absolute terms the size of the child labour force is and will continue to be large enough to be of serious concern.
