Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1993, published 80th ILC session (1993)

Article 3, paragraph 2(2), of the Convention. The Committee notes the Government's statement in its report to the effect that internal administrative difficulties due in particular to the current process of democratic transition and the establishment of institutions are delaying the adoption of the draft decree to which it referred in its previous comments. The Committee hopes that the Government will be able to adopt a decree in the near future fixing the number of employers' and workers' representatives on the Higher Labour Council in equal numbers, in conformity with section 179 of the Labour Code, and that it will supply the text of the decree when it has been adopted.

Article 5 and point V of the report form. The Committee notes the Government's estimate of the variation in minimum wages and its statement that, due to the above difficulties, the inspection services are not managing to provide reports and are not able to assess the number of workers covered by the minimum wage system. It hopes that the Government will be able to provide fuller details in the near future on the effect given in practice to the Convention.
