The Committee notes that the Government’s report contains no reply to previous comments. It hopes that the next report will include full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which will be examined together with the reply to its observations. This direct request read as follows:

Article 2 of the Convention. Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes the Government’s reference to section 3 of the new draft Labour and Employment Code according to which the provisions of the Code would apply to all workplaces without exception, including family undertakings, and also to domestic workers. The Committee asks the Government to specify whether the scope of the draft Code would also be extended to agricultural workers. It again requests the Government to report on any progress made towards the adoption of the draft Labour and Employment Code and to transmit a copy of the new legislation as soon as it is adopted.

Article 4(1). In the absence of any concrete response regarding the determination of the proportion of wages which may be paid in kind, the Committee is bound to reiterate its request for information on any measures taken or envisaged to give effect to this Articleof the Convention.

Article 7(2). The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government in its report that producers may obtain commodities and services at cost prices from consumer cooperatives which are to be found at all workplaces provided that they are members of such cooperatives. The Committee asks the Government to provide additional information on those consumer cooperatives and transmit a copy of any legal text regulating their operation.

Article 8. The Committee notes that the Government in its report again refers to sections 34 and 35 of the Labour Code which relate to the attachment or assignment of wages and not to wage deductions. It is therefore obliged to request the Government to specify whether any limit has been set, or is envisaged to be set, on the overall amount of authorized deductions in order to give effect to the requirements of the Convention in this respect.

[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2003.]
