Articles 1–4 of the Convention. Establishment and operation of minimum wage fixing machinery. With reference to its previous observation, the Committee notes with regret that, to date, no concrete progress has been made with regard to the reactivation and proper functioning of the Minimum Wages Board despite the Committee’s repeated requests over several years to readjust the minimum wage rate, which was last set in 1984. In its latest report, the Government merely indicates that it has initiated a process of identification of the persons to be appointed to the Board, including the social partners, and also that a draft Cabinet paper has been prepared for submission to the competent authority for consideration. In addition, the Government requests the Office to provide technical and financial support with a view to carrying out a study on the wage trends in different sectors of the economy. In view of the ongoing stalemate, the Committee again urges the Government to undertake the long-overdue readjustment of the minimum wage, and, to this end, take prompt action – with the technical assistance of the Office – to enable the Minimum Wages Board to discharge its responsibilities under the Minimum Wages Advisory Boards and Wages Councils Act.
