Article 2 of the Convention. The Committee points out that, in accordance with section 63(b) of the Employment Act, 1980, domestic employees may be excluded from the provisions of Part VI of the Act respecting the protection of wages, by a ministerial order adopted after consultation with the Labour Advisory Board. The Committee requests the Government to indicate whether any such orders have been adopted.

Article 4. The Committee notes that - despite the provisions of section 48(c) of the Employment Act, 1980, which, though authorising the partial payment of wages in kind, prohibits payment in the form of noxious drugs or intoxicating liquor - certain wage regulations, such as the Regulation of Wages (Hotel and Catering Trades) Order, 1988 (Third Schedule), permit the partial payment of wages in kind in the form of a drink known as "Mahewu". However, it appears that this drink contains a certain amount of alcohol and should therefore be forbidden as a means of payment in accordance with this Article of the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to state whether this drink contains alcohol and, if so, to indicate the measures that the Government will take to prohibit the partial payment of wages in kind in the form of this drink.
