The Committee notes the information provided in the Government's report. It notes, in particular, that the minimum wage is regulated according to the position occupied by a worker. However, with reference to its previous request, the Committee notes that the Government's report does not contain any information on the following points:

1. Noting the Government's previous indication that the authorities use the same measures for fixing the minimum wage for young persons, apprentices and the disabled, the Committee again asks the Government to clarify whether this means that these categories of workers are covered by the general minimum wage or that separate rates applicable to them are fixed by the same method.

2. Given that the Government's report does not contain any information on the application of the Convention in practice, the Committee hopes that the Government will provide, in accordance with Article 2, paragraph 1, of the Convention in conjunction with Article 5 and point V of the report form, general information on the application of the Convention in practice, including: (i) the minimum wage rates in force; (ii) the available data on the number and different categories of workers covered by minimum wage provisions; and (iii) the results of inspections carried out (e.g. the number of violations of minimum wage provisions, the penalties imposed, etc.).
