The Committee notes the information communicated by the Government, and in particular the report of the national commission entrusted to examine the international labour Conventions and Recommendations, according to which, as regards this Convention, the modification of the legislation in force is not required.

The Committee notes that the above information does not provide a reply to the following questions raised in its previous direct request:

1. The Committee noted that the Government was planning to amend certain sections of the Wages Act (No. 15 of 1981) and of the regulations issued under the Labour Code, and that these texts were currently the subject of discussions between the authorities and the organizations concerned. The Committee requested the Government to supply copies of these new texts when they are adopted.

2. The Committee noted that the Government had not supplied information concerning the machinery for determining the minimum wages that are applicable to all categories of workers, or concerning the elements to be taken into consideration in determining the level of minimum wages as set out in Article 3 of the Convention. The Committee hoped that the Government would not fail to supply this information.

3. The Committee also requested the Government to indicate whether the machinery for determining minimum wages also provides for them to be adjusted from time to time and whether the occupational organizations concerned are also able to participate in the application of the above machinery, in accordance with Article 4.

The Committee therefore requests the Government to supply in its next report full information on the above-mentioned matters.
