The Committee recalls that it suggested improvements in the draft Labour Code in relation with Articles 1 and 15(c) of the Convention and also pointed out the lack of provisions in the draft Code corresponding to Articles 4(1) (payment in the form of alcoholic liquor or of noxious drugs), 6 (freedom of the workers to dispose of their wages), 7 (measures concerning works stores and services), 9 (prohibition of deductions for obtaining or retaining employment), and 12(2) (final settlement of wages).

The Committee noted the Government's earlier indications that certain provisions of the draft Code already take account of a part of the Committee's advice, that the draft has been submitted to the National Assembly and that modifications and additions to the draft have been made at the committee of labour. It hopes that appropriate measures will be taken to ensure the conformity of national legislation with the provisions of the Convention and requests the Government to report on any progress made concerning the above draft and to provide the text when it is adopted.
