The information supplied to the Committee in response to its 1991 direct request has been noted by the Committee. The Committee would, however, wish to repeat its request in connection with the following provisions:

Article 6, paragraph 1, of the Convention. Please supply full particulars on regulations adopted under this provision of the Convention treating permanent and temporary exceptions in the public and private sectors.

Article 6, paragraph 2, of the Convention. The Committee notes that national legislation does not fix the maximum number of additional hours which may be authorised in the event that provision is made for permanent and temporary exceptions. It points out that, in accordance with this provision of the Convention, regulations which determine exceptions to normal hours of work shall be made following consultations with organisations of employers and workers concerned and shall fix the number of additional hours which may be authorised in each instance. The Committee requests the Government to take the necessary measures to give effect to the Convention on this point.
