The Committee notes with regret that the Government's report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation which read as follows:

The Committee notes that the observations made jointly by the Labour Union of Djibouti and the General Union of Djibouti Workers (UGT/UGTD), concerning the Act on Finance submitted to the National Assembly in March 1998 and promulgated by the Head of State on 5 April 1998, and its repercussion on the wages of January, which has been delayed. These observations were transmitted to the Government for comments in July 1998. In the absence of response from the Government, the Committee invites it to send its observation on the issue raised with reference to the provision of Article 12(1) of the Convention regarding the regular payment of wages. It also asks the Government to supply a copy of the Act in question.

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