The Committee notes the Government’s report. With reference to its previous comments, it notes with interest the evolution of wage structure (Article 10 of the Convention) and requests the Government again to envisage the possibility provided in Article 16(3) of accepting the obligations pursuant to Articles 9, 10 and 11.

Article 14. The Committee notes the information indicating the progress made in the compilation of statistics of occupational injuries and diseases. It would be grateful if the Government would continue to keep the Office informed of any further developments in this matter (Article 16(4)).

Article 15. Noting the Government’s opinion that, because of the lack of any relevant legislation, statistics on strikes and lockouts would not be appropriate, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would nevertheless continue to supply information on any further developments in this matter (Article 16(4)).

Article 7. The Committee notes that the Government has carried out a biannual labour force survey since 1995, and that this survey has become continuous, since 2002, providing quarterly estimates of the labour force, employment and unemployment.

Articles 3, 12 and 13. The Committee requests the Government to provide information in reply to its previous comments which read as follows:

Article 3 of the Convention. Recalling that it is an obligation under this Convention to consult representative organizations of employers and workers in designing or revising the concepts, definitions and methodology of the statistics covered by the Convention, the Committee again asks the Government to provide the information on such consultation with regard to Articles 12 and 13. It also hopes that such consultation will be made on future occasions.

Article 12. The Committee again asks the Government to indicate which international standards were taken into account in computing the CPI (in accordance with Article 2).

Article 13. The Committee asks the Government to send to the ILO the publication containing 1998 survey results concerning the statistics of household expenditure (in accordance with Article 5).
