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 comments.

Repetition
The Committee notes the Government’s report and the documents attached, received by the ILO on 13 October 2009.
The Committee notes the Government’s commitment to implement the provisions of this Convention. It notes that the latest wages surveys were carried out in 2002 by the National Labour Institute, in 2005 by the central services of the Ministry of Labour, Employment and Social Security, and in 2007 by a private studies office. The Committee requests the Government to indicate whether, in accordance with the provisions of Part II of the Convention, statistics on the average earnings by branch of economic activity have continued to be compiled and published since 2007 and, if so, the type of survey. Furthermore, it reminds the Government that these statistics and the corresponding methodological information should be sent to the ILO as soon as practicable.
The Committee notes that, according to the Government, with regard to hours of work, the collection of more specific data as defined by the ILO for the purposes of the Yearbook of Labour Statistics is not operational for the time being but it is envisaged that specific surveys relating to hours of work will be carried out. The Committee requests the Government to keep the Office informed of any developments in this regard. It draws its attention to the new international standards relating to the measurement of working time in the form of Resolution I, adopted at the 18th International Conference of Labour Statisticians which defines the more extensive concepts and measures in detail.
