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:

1. The Committee notes the Government's indication that the 1988 Labour Code is fully consistent with the provisions of the Convention. It notes with interest that section 206 of the Code establishes the principle of equal remuneration for men and women for the same work or work of equal value, in accordance with the requirements of the Convention. It notes, however, that the Government has not provided detailed information that enables it to ascertain how the principle of equal remuneration, laid down in the Labour Code, and linked to Order No. 138/MASE/DNTLS/90 of 15 May 1990 to classify jobs in the private and semi-private sectors, is applied in practice.

While noting the Government's indication that it is difficult to compile such information owing to inadequate material, human and financial resources, the Committee reiterates the hope that the Government will endeavour, with the cooperation of employers' and workers' organizations, to compile statistics of jobs with a high concentration of women, and their remuneration as compared to that of men at different levels, in both private and public sectors, so that it can evaluate in general how the principle of the Convention is applied in practice.

2. Noting the Government's statement that in all negotiations on collective agreements the provisions of the Code are taken strictly into account, the Committee asks the Government to provide samples of existing collective agreements fixing wage rates, and an indication of the number of women covered by these agreements, so that it may ascertain that all parts of remuneration stipulated in these agreements are in keeping with the principle of the Convention, including a copy of the 1987 collective agreement for the mines, quarries and chemical industries sector which, according to the report, was sent to the ILO on adoption, but which has not been received.

3. The Committee also asks the Government to provide information on the measures taken to ensure supervision of the application of the legal provisions governing equal pay, and in particular on the activities of the inspection services (infringements recorded, sanctions imposed) and on any court decisions relevant to the Convention.
