The Committee recalls the comments sent by both the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU) and the All Pakistan Federation of Trade Unions, dated 18 September 2001 and 9 July 2003 respectively. The All Pakistan Federation of Trade Unions stresses the need to adopt legislation and establish effective labour inspection services in order to enforce the Convention. The ICFTU alleged that women did not always receive equal treatment with their male counterparts in terms of pay and benefits. Noting that the Government’s first report has not been received, the Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to supply the report in the very near future, including any comments the Government may wish to make in reply to the observations made by the abovementioned workers’ organizations.
