The Committee notes the information in the Government's report.

1. The Committee notes the indication by the Government that the statistical information requested is not available. In this respect, the Committee would like to refer the Government to its general observation on the importance and role of statistical information. In the absence of this information, the Committee requests the Government to provide it with any other information it may have, i.e. studies, guidelines, etc., with regard to the application of provisions regulating wages and the application of equal remuneration between men and women in accordance with the Convention.

2. With reference to its direct request of 1997 on Convention No. 111, in which it noted that the number of women receiving training through the Office of Vocational Training continues to increase, albeit in courses such as tailoring, knitting, typing, flower arranging, hairdressing and embroidering, the Committee notes that discrimination in remuneration may arise out of the existence of a heavy concentration of women workers in certain jobs and certain sectors of activity. The Committee requests the Government to indicate how existing machinery and procedures take into account the possible existence of such a concentration of women workers in certain jobs and sectors while ensuring equal remuneration for work of equal value for men and women workers.
