In its previous comments, the Committee pointed out that section 33 of Legislative Decree No. 409 of 1971, which authorizes exceptions from the prohibition of night work in industry for persons aged between 16 and 18 years for the purposes of vocational training, is not in conformity with Article 2 of the Convention. It also pointed out that section 29 of the same Legislative Decree, under which collective agreements may fix the beginning of the night period later than 10 p.m., conflicts with Article 3 of the Convention. It noted the assurances given by the Government that collective agreements could not make use of this possibility.

The Committee notes Legislative Decree No. 396/91, of 16 October 1991, respecting work by young persons, and Ministerial Orders Nos. 714/93 and 715/93, of 3 August 1993, relating respectively to the definition of light work and activities which are prohibited for young persons. It observes that these texts do not bring the legislation into conformity with the Convention on the two points referred to above.

The Committee requests the Government to report the measures which have been taken or are envisaged to bring the legislation into conformity with the Convention on these points.
