Articles 1 and 3 of the Convention. Minimum wage fixing machinery. The Committee notes the Government’s statement that the system of labour administration, which was disrupted by the recent volcanic eruption, has now been normalized to permit consideration of the determination of a minimum wage. The Government indicates that it is in a position to actively pursue the establishment of a general minimum wage as a matter of priority and that the minimum wage declaration will be communicated as soon as it is finalized. The Committee expresses its hope that some 30 years after the adoption of the Employment Ordinance, which makes provision for minimum wages to be fixed by the Labour Tribunal after consultation with the Labour Advisory Board, the Government will take without further delay all necessary steps in order to apply and effectively enforce its minimum wage legislation thus giving effect to the basic requirements of the Convention. It accordingly requests the Government to keep the Office informed of any progress made in this regard and to transmit a copy of the legal instrument prescribing the minimum wage once it is adopted.
