The Committee notes with interest, in particular, that progress has been made as to the collection and publication of separate figures on average earnings and hours of work for mining and for manufacturing, according to the information available at the International Labour Office (Part II, Article 5(3)(a) of the Convention).

It requests the Government to provide information on any measures taken or envisaged to compile and publish statistics of time rates of wages and of normal hours of work in accordance with the provisions of Part III, and to compile and publish statistics of wages and hours of work in agriculture in accordance with Part IV.
