With reference to its observation, the Committee would like to raise the following additional points.

Article 3(1)(a) of the Convention. Enforcement of the legal provisions relating to payment of wages. Noting that, according to the Government, the wages protection system shall apply from the next Hijra year, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide information on the functioning of the wages protection system and on its impact on the application of the legal provisions relating to the payment of wages. It would be also grateful if the Government would provide statistical information on: (i) the number of workers who did not receive their wages; (ii) the number of establishments failing to pay wages; and (iii) the penalties imposed accordingly.
