Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2008, publiée 98ème session CIT (2009)

Part V of the report form. Practical application of the Convention. The Committee notes with interest the statistical information contained in the Government’s report concerning the number of public contracts awarded in the period 2004–05, the number of workers employed in the construction industry as well as the number of inspection visits carried out in the construction and service sectors in 2005–06. It also notes the sample contracts for maintenance and security services which were attached to the report and which are deemed to include the provisions of Part XII of the Labour Act (Cap. 297) on labour clauses in public contracts. The Committee would appreciate if the Government would continue providing up to date information on the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice.

For all useful purposes, the Committee attaches herewith a copy of a Practical Guide, prepared by the Office principally on the basis of the General Survey of 2008 on Convention No. 94, to help better understand the requirements of the Convention and ultimately improve its application in law.
