The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

Article 8, paragraph 3, of the Convention. In its previous direct request, the Committee drew the Government's attention to the fact that section 11 of Order No. 1545 of 23 December 1953 authorises, in a number of cases, the suspension of weekly rest without providing for compensatory rest as required by this provision of the Convention. The Committee notes with interest the Government's reply to the effect that it will examine the possibility of amending the text in question in order to bring it into conformity with the Convention. The Committee expresses the hope that the necessary measures will be taken in the near future.
