Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2006, published 96th ILC session (2007)

Labour Clauses (Public Contracts) Convention, 1949 (No. 94) - Djibouti (Ratification: 1978)

The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation which read as follows:

The Committee notes that the Government’s brief statements do not contain a reply to its previous comments. It is therefore bound to recall its previous observations concerning the fact that the Government has still not proceeded to the adoption of legislation giving effect to the Convention. The Committee regrets that, despite its repeated comments, no real progress has been achieved for over 20 years in relation to the inclusion of labour clauses in public contracts. In its latest report, the Government states that it is planning to examine the necessary measures to give effect to the Convention in the overall context of the forthcoming revision of labour laws and regulations which it hopes to undertake with the Office’s assistance as soon as the conditions have been fulfilled for the organization of a national tripartite consultation.

While recalling that the Government’s report in 2000 contained a statement couched in identical terms, the Committee requests the Government to take the necessary measures without further ado to bring national law and practice into conformity with the provisions and objectives of the Convention.

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