The Committee takes note of the Government's report and the information provided in reply to its previous comments, and the appended documents.

1. The Committee notes the updated public service wage tables applying to five categories of workers, both men and women. It also notes the tables applying to staff employed by the Government, disaggregated by sex and by department. In order that the Committee may ascertain how the principle of equal remuneration laid down in the laws and regulations is applied in practice, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide with its next report information, if possible in table form, broken down by category or job level, on the actual earnings of men and women and the distribution of men and women employed at the different levels.

2. The Committee notes that, in the private sector, wages are fixed not by collective agreements but by wage-fixing committees in each province. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide with its next report statistical data showing the actual earnings of men and of women broken down by job category, and the distribution of men and women employed at the different levels.

3. The Committee also asks the Government to provide information on the measures taken to ensure that the provisions regulating equal remuneration are applied and, in particular, on the activities of the Labour Inspectorate (infringements registered, penalties imposed) and on the decisions handed down by the courts.
