1. Article 4 of the Convention. With reference to its previous comments concerning the draft revision of the Labour Code, which contains provisions on sanctions applicable in the event of non-observance of established minimum wage rates, the Committee notes the Government's statement that the situation remains unchanged because the Government's attention has been entirely taken up by urgent problems such as the armed conflict besetting the country since October 1990, economic recovery through structural adjustment and political problems.

The Committee hopes that the Government will take the necessary measures in the very near future to give effect to this provision of the Convention. It asks the Government to provide information on measures taken to this end.

2. The Committee also notes the observation submitted in a letter of 19 December 1992 by the Rwanda Central Organization of Workers' Trade Unions (CESTRAR) concerning the participation of employers and workers in minimum wage fixing. The CESTRAR has observed a positive trend, and particularly the imminent establishment of machinery for tripartite cooperation in the determination of working conditions, including minimum wages, and, pending its establishment, the intention to set up an informal tripartite group. The Committee hopes that the Government will provide information on any developments in this respect.

The Committee also refers to a request addressed directly to the Government concerning the question of consultation.
