The Committee, while noting that the Government's report has not been received, takes note of the discussion which took place in the Conference Committee in 1992, during which a government representative stated that his Government would make every effort to submit sufficient information concerning the application of the Convention.

The Committee therefore requests the Government to indicate in its next report whether the draft Labour Code, referred to by the government representative, would be applicable to the following categories of workers who are currently excluded from the scope of the Labour Code, Act No. 38 of 1964 (section 2) in violation of Article 2 of the Convention: state and public service workers; fixed-term workers employed by the State under the regulations concerning the employment of Indian and Pakistani citizens; domestic workers and employees holding similar positions; and seafarers, or to communicate any new Act or regulation which would grant these workers the right to organize.

[The Government is asked to report in detail for the period ending 30 June 1993.]
