Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2001, publiée 90ème session CIT (2002)

Convention (n° 94) sur les clauses de travail (contrats publics), 1949 - Mauritanie (Ratification: 1963)

Article 4(a)(iii) of the Convention. Further to its previous comments concerning the measures taken under section 50 of Decree No. 80.182/PG to ensure that the labour clauses are brought to the notice of the workers concerned, the Committee notes the Government’s reply to the effect that the said Decree has been repealed by Decree No. 93-011 of 10 January 1993 on public contracts regulations which was published in Official Journal No. 800 of 15 February 1993. The Committee takes note of this information. However, the Committee notes that section 9 of the new enactment provides that the manner in which the labour clauses are to be brought to the knowledge of the workers concerned shall be determined by order of the Minister of Labour. In this connection, the Committee requests the Government to indicate whether such order has been issued and, if so, to communicate a copy of that document.

Part V of the report form. 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 number of contracts and workers covered by relevant legislation, etc. Such information being essential for the fulfilment of the Committee’s mandate, the Committee would be grateful to the Government for supplying in its next report full particulars on the practical application of the Convention, including copies of public contracts containing labour clauses, reports and statistics from inspection services on the supervision and enforcement of relevant legislation and any other information bearing on the practical implementation of the requirements of the Convention.
