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 matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

Part V of the report form. The Committee notes that for many years the Government has been indicating that there are no legislative changes or other major developments to be reported and consequently no information has been provided on the practical application of the Convention, other than the total number of public contracts awarded during each reporting period. In this connection, the Committee recalls that under Article 6 of the Convention and Part V of the report form, governments are requested to give a general appreciation of the manner in which the Convention is applied, including, for instance, extracts from official reports, information concerning the approximate number of workers covered by relevant legislation, etc. The report form, which was adopted by the Governing Body of the ILO, is the main channel through which the Committee may obtain all the necessary information in order to follow the evolution of the national law and practice in matters covered by the Convention. The Committee would therefore be grateful to the Government for supplying in its next report more elaborate information on the practical application of the Convention, including samples of public contracts, information from inspection services on the supervision and enforcement of national legislation and any other particulars bearing on the measures designed to implement the Convention. The Committee also requests the Government to indicate whether the specimen copy of a form of contract for construction and similar works, a copy of which was attached to the Government’s report of 1986, is still in use or has been amended, in which case the Committee would appreciate receiving a copy.
