Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 2013, published 103rd ILC session (2014)

Labour Administration Convention, 1978 (No. 150) - Cambodia (Ratification: 1999)

The Committee notes the Government’s brief report.

In its previous comments, the Committee noted the Government’s communication to the ILO of Anukret No. 52 of 1 April 2005 on the organization and operation of the Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training, as well as a series of documents provided in reply to the questions raised by the Committee in its previous comments. Noting that all of the documents were in the Khmer language, the Committee requested the Government to provide information on their content in relation to the Articles of the Convention. The Committee notes that, in reply to its request, the Government refers to documentation in English annexed to its report on the Anukret. However, the Committee observes that no annexes were received to the Government’s report. The Committee therefore once again requests the Government to provide specific information on the content of Anukret No. 52 of 1 April 2005 in relation to the provisions of the Convention. The Committee would also be grateful if it would provide a copy of the English version of the Anukret.

Part IV of the report form. Application in practice. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide a general appreciation of the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice, for example by communicating information on the content of any reports provided by the principal labour administration services and referred to in Paragraph 20 of the Labour Administration Recommendation, 1978 (No. 158). The Committee also requests the Government to provide information on any practical difficulties encountered in the application of the Convention.

Part VI of the report form. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate, in accordance with article 23(2) of the ILO Constitution, the representative organizations of employers and workers to which copies of the Government’s report have been communicated. If such copies have not been communicated, the Committee requests the Government to indicate the precise reasons for the failure to give effect to this provision of the present Convention.
