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

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the following matters raised in its previous direct request:

The Committee noted that, for the time being, the Government was unable to collect statistical data, in accordance with Article 5 of the Convention, on the numbers of workers to whom minimum wages apply and other information (for example extracts of inspection service reports) required under Part V of the report form. The Committee hopes that the Government will shortly take the necessary steps to obtain this information and forward it to the International Labour Office.

Furthermore, the Committee recalls that the Government indicated in previous reports that a General Labour Bill was being prepared and that steps have been taken to make good the deficiencies in the Bill relating to methods of fixing minimum wages. The Committee requests the Government to provide information whether the new labour legislation has been adopted.
