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:

Articles 2 and 3 of the Convention. (a) The Committee notes that the Government is still considering the amendment of the legislation in order to prohibit the night work of women during a period of at least 11 consecutive hours, in accordance with the provisions of the Convention. It hopes that the amendment will be adopted shortly and asks the Government to indicate any progress made in this connection.

(b) The Committee once again requests the Government to indicate the cases in which an employer may, under section 101(1) of the Employment Act, obtain authorisation to engage a woman between 10 p.m. of one day and 6 a.m. of the following day. It recalls that the only exceptions authorised in this respect are those contained in Articles 4 and 5 of the Convention.

Article 4(b). The Government is asked to provide information on the operations to which the exception provided for in section 101(4b) of the Act applies in practice, stating whether such an application is limited to certain regions or certain periods, as required in the report form on the Convention.
