The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation, which reads as follows:

The Committee notes the communication received from the Democratic Trade Union Organization of African Workers, to the effect that during the period of six years public and semi-public sector workers have been paid irregularly by the Government. The Office sent a copy of this communication in October 1999 to the Government for comments. The Committee requests the Government to respond to the points raised in this communication and to provide detailed information on the practical application of Article 12(1) of the Convention (regular payment of wages), in particular in the public and semi-public sectors.

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the very near future.
