Articles 2 to 15 of the Convention. Protection of wages. The Committee notes the adoption of the new national Constitution on 7 February 2009 which entails the amendment of numerous legislative texts, including the general Labour Act currently being drawn up. It notes that the Government’s report provides no new information in reply to the Committee’s numerous comments for several years on the application of virtually all the provisions of the Convention. The Committee hopes that, in the context of drawing up the new labour legislation, the Government will take into account its previous comments and that it will not fail to take the opportunity to bring its legislation into conformity with the Convention, particularly with regard to Articles 2 (application of the Convention to agricultural workers); 3 (payment of wages in legal tender); 5 (payment of wages directly to the worker concerned); 8 (deductions from the wages of private‑sector workers and public servants); 9 (labour contractors or recruiters); 10 (attachment or assignment of the wages of private-sector workers and public servants); 12 (final settlement of the wages due); 14 (informing workers of wage conditions); and 15(d) (keeping of records). The Committee therefore requests the Government to keep the Office informed of any developments in drawing up the new general Labour Act and to provide a copy of that text as soon as it has been finalized. The Committee recalls that the Government, may, if it so wishes, seek technical assistance from the ILO through its regional office in Lima with regard to the legislative amendments that are necessary to ensure the full application of the provisions of the Convention.
