Application in practice. The Committee notes the Government’s report which contains general information regarding the situation of women in the labour market. However, the Government has once again failed to provide the information requested by the Committee in its previous comments. The Committee therefore reiterates its request to the Government to provide the following:

(i)    detailed statistical information on the earnings of women and men in the private and public sectors, as far as possible as set out in the Committee’s 1998 general observation;

(ii)   information on the measures taken or planned to raise awareness and understanding of the right to equal remuneration for women and men for work of equal value among workers and employers, as well as public officials responsible for monitoring the application of the Convention;

(iii) information on equal pay cases dealt with by the competent administrative and judicial authorities; and

(iv)  information on the specific steps taken to seek the cooperation of employers’ and workers’ organizations with a view to giving effect to the provisions of the Convention.

The Committee urges the Government to provide the information requested in its next report.
