The Committee notes with interest the adoption of the Workers' Compensation Act, Cap. 21 of 1990 which according to its section 1 will come into operation on such date as the Minister may appoint by notice published in the Gazette. As stated in the Government's report, it was envisaged to implement the provisions of the new Act in phases as from 1 April 1992.

The Committee would be grateful if the Government would continue to provide information concerning the entry into force of the provisions of the above-mentioned Act as well as supply a copy of any rules that might have been adopted regarding payment of benefits abroad.
