The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its report. It draws once again its attention to the obligations of Articles 5 and 6 of the Convention concerning the communication of data collected from the latest Population Census (total and economically active population) to the ILO. The Committee hopes that the Government will provide the methodological information on the 2011 Population Census as soon as possible and the census results as soon as they become available. The Committee also requests the Government to take all necessary measures so as to ensure that the published statistics compiled in accordance with Article 11 (statistics of labour cost) are in the future communicated to the ILO, as soon as practicable.

Article 15 of the Convention. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide information on the definition of “political strikes” and the reasons for their exclusion from data collection.
