The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

The Committee notes the information provided in the Government’s report, in reply to its previous request for detailed information concerning the minimum wage fixing machinery in the sugar industry and in domestic employment, in particular with regard to consultation with the representatives of the employers and workers concerned and the manner in which they are associated in the operation of the minimum wage fixing in these sectors of activity. The Committee requests the Government to continue to provide information on the development of the minimum wage fixing in the sugar industry. It also asks the Government to indicate any progress made in the establishment of a consultative body or mechanism to assist the minister in fixing a minimum wage rate applicable to domestic workers.
