Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1987, Publicación: 74ª reunión CIT (1987)

The Committee notes Ordinance No. 85-1181 of 13 November 1985 which repeals Ordinance No. 82-1114 of 23 December 1982 respecting the legislative regulations covering labour law in the Territory of New Caledonia and its dependancies. The Committee takes note of chapter VI of Title 1 of this Ordinance establishing guide-lines with regard to wages. It also notes, from the Government's report, that measures to apply the above Ordinance will be taken by decision of the Congress of the Territory and that draft legislation is currently being prepared in this respect. In view of the fact that the Convention was essentially applied by the Labour Code (Overseas Territories) of 15 December 1952, with a number of amendments, including those resulting from Ordinance No. 82-1114 of 23 December 1982, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate whether the Convention remains in effect in the interim through the Labour Code (Overseas Territories). It also requests the Government to report the steps taken with a view to giving effect to the Convention in accordance with the above new Ordinance.
