Observation (CEACR) - adopted 1997, published 86th ILC session (1998)

Labour Clauses (Public Contracts) Convention, 1949 (No. 94) - Panama (Ratification: 1971)

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation on the following points:

Further to its previous observation, the Committee notes the Government's indication in the report to the effect that it intends to deal with the measures to apply this Convention in the tripartite labour commission which is examining the questions relating to the Labour Code. It hopes that the necessary measures will be taken in the near future and requests the Government to indicate any progress made in this regard. As to the questions raised in the previous direct request regarding the Specifications of Public Tenders (Model Articles and Conditions), the Committee notes that the Government's report gives no reply to them and repeats them in a new direct request. It hopes that the Government will supply the information requested.

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the very near future.
