The Committee notes the Government’s report.

1. The Committee notes with interest the Government’s statement that the application of the National Programme for the Promotion of Equality includes the compilation of data intended to provide a systematic presentation of the situation of women in all fields. It notes that the working group responsible for statistics in the Commission on Equality Issues has initiated a project to review the general methods for the compilation of statistical information, and for the harmonization of these methods with international standards. It regrets that the lack of financial resources has not yet enabled the group to finalize its work, but hopes that the Government will make every effort in the future to complete this work and asks it to keep the Committee informed of developments in this respect.

2. The Committee notes that the Government is expecting to receive from the Croatian Association of Employers copies of the rules determining wages for employers with fewer than 20 employees. It asks the Government to provide copies of these rules when it has obtained a copy of them from the employers.

3. The Committee notes the Government’s statement that the ombudsperson responsible, under the national policy, for examining discrimination between men and women, has not yet received any complaints concerning wage discrimination, but recalls its request to be provided with the results of the examination of the job evaluation system carried out within the context of the National Policy for the Promotion of Equality.
