Articles 6 and 7 of the Convention. In its previous comments the Committee asked the Government to envisage amending sections 150 and 152 of the Labour Code in order to bring the national legislation into full conformity with the provisions of the Convention. It notes the Government’s response of 2 October 2001 to the comments previously made by the Confederation of Workers Rerum Novarum (CTRN). It further notes that no such amendments have been made or envisaged so far. The Committee once again asks the Government to take all necessary measures to make the respective changes in the legislation, to ensure that in the course of each period of seven days at least 24 consecutive hours of rest are granted in commercial establishments, and all persons to whom special weekly rest schemes apply are entitled, in each period of seven days, to a rest period of not less than 24 hours.
