Article 2 of the Convention. The Committee notes the Government's statement in its report that the public contracts comply with the legal rules set forth by the Egyptian legislature and which are provided in the Convention. It is obliged to point out, as it repeatedly did in its earlier comments, that the protection provided through labour clauses in public contracts cannot normally be ensured only through the application of the general labour standards.
The Committee recalls that the Government indicated in its earlier report that it had requested the Central Body for Management and Administration to supply it with the text of the instructions under which a clause has to be included in all public contracts guaranteeing to workers concerned conditions of work not less favourable than those of other workers performing the same work. The Committee once again requests the Government to supply a copy of these instructions and copies of contracts including this clause in compliance with these instructions.
Point V of the report form. The Committee also requests the Government to supply general information on the manner in which the Convention is applied.
