The Committee notes the detailed information supplied by the Government in its report and the attached statistical data.

Articles 3 and 4 of the Convention. The Committee notes the measures which have been adopted in order to permit, inter alia, the determination of minimum wages within the context of the Economic Solidarity Pact and the Pact for Stability and Economic Growth, which bear witness to a vast concerted effort by the federal Government, employers, employees and rural workers in the context of a policy of structural adjustment, taking into account the elements provided for in Article 3 of the Convention. The Government's report shows that the representatives of organizations of employers and workers were consulted concerning the application of methods for fixing and adjusting minimum wages.

The Committee requests the Government to continue supplying information on minimum wage fixing and, in particular, to indicate the measures which have been adopted so that the purchasing power of statutory general minimum wages and of minimum wages fixed by geographical zones can be regained.
