The Committee notes the information supplied in the Government’s reports.

Articles 1, paragraph 1, and 3, paragraph 2(2), of the Convention. The Government has been reporting for some time past that it is considering extending the coverage of minimum wage legislation to industries other than the rice milling industry and the cigar and cheroots rolling industries in respect of which minimum wages councils have long been in operation. The Government has also been stating that wages fixed by minimum wages orders have little relevance to the actual wages in the labour market and that it therefore intends to adopt new procedures for the revision of those wage rates. The Committee requests the Government to indicate in its next report any progress made in this respect specifying in particular the measures taken to ensure that the employers and workers concerned are associated in equal numbers and on equal terms in determining or adjusting minimum wage levels. Furthermore, in the absence of any reply to its previous comments relating to the point raised in paragraphs 473 to 475 and 512 of the report of the Commission of Inquiry appointed under article 26 of the Constitution of the ILO to examine the observance by Myanmar of the Forced Labour Convention, 1930 (No. 29), the Committee is bound to renew its request for explanations concerning the manner in which minimum wage rates are established and applied to local people called up for labour or services in various construction projects and agricultural works. Finally, the Committee asks the Government to keep it informed of any developments with regard to the enactment of the new labour law to which reference was made in an earlier report.
