Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1991, published 78th ILC session (1991)

The Committee notes with interest that the Ministry of Labour has in agreement with the National Association of County Authorities and the National Associations of Municipal Authorities sent out Circular No. 115 of 27 June 1990 on labour clauses in public contracts in building and construction recommending that all municipalities and counties should include a labour clause in all contracts concerning public building and construction work in accordance with the guide-lines applying to public contracts under Circular No. 114 of May 1966.

The Committee would be glad if the Government would provide a general appreciation of the manner in which the Convention is applied under the new decisions, and if it would send further information giving, for instance, extracts from official reports, information concerning the number of contracts and workers covered by the relevant legislation, etc., and any other particulars bearing on the practical application of the Convention.
