Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1987, published 74th ILC session (1987)

Labour Administration Convention, 1978 (No. 150) - Gabon (Ratification: 1979)

The Committee observes that the report of the Government contains no reply to its earlier comments. It hopes that the next report will provide full information on the points raised in its previous direct request, which were to the following effect:

The Committee trusts that in future reports the Government will continue to furnish clear information on the effective operation of the system of labour administration, in accordance with Article 4, and also on the material means and financial resources necessary for the effective performance of the duties of the staff assigned to this system in accordance with Article 10, paragraph 2, including extracts of any reports or other periodic information provided by the principal labour administration services, as indicated in point IV of the report form drawn up for this Convention.

Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Convention. The Committee takes note of the intention expressed in the report of the Government to communicate to it the texts concerning the application of the provisions of this Article. It notes with interest the provisions of Decree No. 000795/PR/MTE of 4 July 1980 establishing the composition of the National Committee for the Study of Wages. Other texts requested in its earlier comments do not, however, appear to have been received and the Committee trusts that copies will be enclosed with the next report of the Government and that they will provide in particular information on the establishment, composition and effective operation of advisory bodies such as the Technical Advisory Committee and the Labour Advisory Committee, provided for by section 159 of the Labour Code.
