The Committee notes the Government's report and in particular the information provided in reply to its previous comments on Articles 3 and 11 of the Convention. It requests the Government to supply further information on the following points.

Article 9(1). The Committee notes that in 1997 it was planned to revise the establishment survey providing the current statistics of earnings and hours paid for and to extend its scope to construction, and also that the industrial classification is now in line with NACE, Rev.1, and ISIC, Rev.3.
