Articles 4, 8, paragraph 2, and 13, paragraph 1, of the Convention. Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes from the Government's report that the Government is currently taking positive steps to introduce relevant changes to both the Labour Ordinance (Chapter 67) Sabah and the Labour Ordinance (Chapter 76) Sarawak so as to bring them in line with those provided by the Employment Act, 1955. The Committee hopes that the Government will be able to indicate in its next report, that the necessary measures have been taken to ensure the application of the above-mentioned Articles of the Convention in these regions. The Committee recalls that such measures have been pending for many years.
