The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation which read as follows:

The Committee notes that the observations have been received from the Zambia Congress of Trade Unions (ZCTU), pointing out that wages have not been paid in most local authorities for periods ranging from two to 19 months, affecting close to 10,000 workers and 100,000 people, including their families. These observations were transmitted to the Government for its comments in September 1998. In the absence of response from the Government, the Committee invites it to send its observation on the issue raised with reference to the provision of Article 12(1) of the Convention regarding the regular payment of wages.

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the very near future.
