Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1991, publiée 78ème session CIT (1991)

The Committee notes from the Government's report that it has not yet been able to enact legislation to give effect to the provisions of this Convention. However, the Government indicates that in practice the principles of the Convention are carried out. The Committee recalls that this legislation has been under consideration since 1973. It trusts that the necessary measures will be taken in the very near future and hopes that the Government will be able to indicate, in its next report, that progress has been made towards ensuring the enactment of the implementing legislation.

The Committee recalls that in order to bring such legislation into conformity with the Convention, provisions would have to be enacted to insert appropriate labour clauses in public contracts (Article 2(1) of the Convention) and to make the legislation applicable to all kinds of contracts covered by Article 1(1) of the Convention, including but not limited to public works contracts.
