(2)   the manner in which vocational training establishments, the projects to develop occupational skills and the projects for youth advancement, especially young women, take into account the advancement of women and the promotion of equality between men and women with a view to eliminating existing wage inequalities between men and women;

(3)   any efforts made or envisaged, including national, sectoral or enterprise-level studies or surveys, to collect and analyse statistical data, disaggregated by sex, on the earnings levels of men and women and their respective levels of participation in the labour market, if possible, by branch of economic activity or occupation, on which to base an assessment of the application of the Convention; and

(4)   any other information that would enable the Committee to make an evaluation of the progress made or the specific difficulties encountered in the application of the Convention.
