The Committee notes with regret 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 7, paragraph 2, of the Convention. Noting that certain hours of opening or closing, particularly in commercial establishments, have been modified for practical reasons, the Committee asks the Government to indicate the measures taken to ensure that persons affected by the modified timetables have the minimum weekly rest period laid down by this provision of the Convention.

Article 8, paragraph 3. Under section 37 of the Labour Code, the worker who has to work on the weekly day of rest may choose between taking a rest period equivalent to the weekly rest period and receiving the wages of the hours for which he has worked. The Committee wishes to call the attention of the Government to the fact that, under this provision of the Convention, in a case of this kind compensatory rest must be granted to the workers concerned. It would therefore be grateful if the Government would provide information on the measures taken or under consideration to bring the national legislation into conformity with the Convention on this point.
