Chris,
I know that ILO 103 being about pregnancy, childbirth and post-partum did
not cover non-biological children and so women breastfeeding adopted
children did not get any protection under this convention re lactation
breaks etc. Do you know if the ILO 183 does or if this has ever been
discussed?
