The Committee notes with regret 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:

Article 1, paragraphs 2 and 3, of the Convention. The Committee noted that Decree No. 3005 of 1980 fixing minimum wages applies to all workers under the coverage of the Labour Code. Please indicate the situation as regards minimum wages for workers excluded from coverage by sections 7 and 8 of the Labour Code, in particular, domestic workers and workers in the agricultural sector.

Article 2, paragraph 2. Please indicate the number and categories of workers, if any, whose wages are fixed by collective agreements.

Article 4, paragraphs 2 and 3. The Committee noted that section 45 of the Labour Code provides for minimum wage fixing by tripartite wage boards. Please indicate the measures taken to ensure consultation with and, where appropriate, participation of representative organizations of employers and workers, when minimum wages are fixed by decrees. In this connection, please specify the relation between the minimum wages and the index of high cost of living examined by the Commission established under Decree No. 4206 of 8 August 1981, to which the Government referred in its report submitted under article 19 of the Constitution.
