0n light of the replies received, the +ffice proposes that the Preamble recalls the relevant
international labour standards, in particular the 01+ fundamental ,onventions, as well as
relevant (nited !ations instruments 2see point 32b4 of the proposed ,onclusions4, and that a list
of relevant instruments be included in an anne5 to the instrument 2see 6uestion 314. 0n addition,
the +ffice proposes that the Preamble notes the 01+ 7eclaration on Fundamental Principles and
8ights at 9or: and its Follow;up, 1##%, and the 01+ 7eclaration on 'ocial <ustice for a Fair
=lobali>ation, 200%, in point 32a4 of the proposed ,onclusions. ?oreover, as there is support for
the inclusion of relevant (nited !ations instruments, the +ffice proposes to insert a provision
related to human rights in the operative part of the proposed instrument in point 1# of the
proposed ,onclusions.

('% - 'hould the Preamble of the proposed instrument recall that"
2a4 most people enter the informal economy not by choice but as a
conse6uence of a lac: of opportunities in the formal economy and have no

Ta:ing into account the replies received, the +ffice proposes to note in point 32d4 of the
proposed ,onclusions that, in some cases, wor:ers and economic units operate in the informal
economy to evade laws and regulations.

('% -
2b4 wor:ers and economic units in the informal economy can have a large
entrepreneurial potential and their creativity, dynamism, s:ills and
innovation could flourish if obstacles to transition to the formal economy

9ith regard to the concern raised above, the +ffice notes that the issue of diversity in the
informal economy is addressed in 6uestion 10.
0n light of the replies received, the +ffice proposes to note that the high incidence of the
informal economy is a maor challenge for inclusive development and the rule of law in
point 32c4 of the proposed ,onclusions. ?oreover, the +ffice proposes to highlight the
negative impact of the high incidence of informality on a number of concerned aspects and
actors. The +ffice proposes no change regarding the recognition of the need to ta:e urgent
measures in point 4 of the proposed ,onclusions.

serious decent wor: deficits in the informal economy.

0n light of the replies received, the +ffice concludes that there is a need to separate the
various elements of this 6uestion in two points of the proposed ,onclusions 2points 2&2a4 and 2$4.
The +ffice proposes to address the issue of the role of employersH and wor:ersH organi>ations in
point 2$2a4 of the proposed ,onclusions. The issue of the e5tension of membership and services is
addressed in point 2&2a4 of the proposed ,onclusions. 0n light of replies received, the +ffice
proposes to add a point 2$2b4 in the proposed ,onclusions stressing Bthe importance for
?embers to create an enabling environment for employers and wor:ers to e5ercise their right to
organise and to collective bargainingC.

('% *1 'hould the proposed instrument provide for the need to strengthen the capacity
of employersH and wor:ersH organi>ations and representative organi>ations of
the informal economy to organi>e and assist wor:ers and economic units in the
informal economy with a view to facilitating the transition to formality)
