The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the following matters raised in its previous direct request:

Articles 2 and 3, paragraph 1, of the Convention. The Committee once again notes that no effective measures have been taken to set up the minimum wage councils provided for in the Fair Labour Standards Act of 21 October 1992. It reiterates the hope that the Government will report in the near future on the measures taken or envisaged for this purpose, including the consultations held in this connection with the employers' and workers' organizations concerned, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Convention.

Article 5. The Committee asks the Government to provide a copy of the collective agreements on minimum wages concluded by the employers' and workers' organizations concerned. In addition, it again requests the Government to provide information on the practical application of the Convention, as required by this Article.

The Committee trusts that the Government will provide full information on the above matters.
