The Committee notes the Government's first report and requests it to supply further information on the following points:

Article 4, paragraph 3 of the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to indicate the measures taken or envisaged to allow, wherever appropriate, the direct participation of the categories of persons covered by the present proposals in the application of the minimum wage-fixing machinery. The Government is also asked to specify in regard to paragraph 3(a), how equality of participation by representatives of employers and workers is ensured.

Article 5, in conjunction with point V of the report form. The Committee notes that, according to the Government's report, section 261 of the Labour Code establishes the general principle of supervising application of laws, including those on minimum wages, by the Attorney General of the Republic. Trade unions are also responsible for supervision. Furthermore, the Government indicates that a corps of government inspectors is being constituted.

The Committee requests the Government to indicate the measures taken or envisaged in the framework of establishing the Government inspectors' corps and to supply, where appropriate, information about their functions, powers and activities in relation to minimum wages (including the number of infringements recorded, sanctions imposed, etc.).
