The Committee has taken note of Act No. 9 of 1987 concerning the Workers' Education Institute. However, it also notes that the Government's report contains no reply to its comments. It hopes that the next report will include full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

Articles 3 and 10 of the Convention. While noting the information on the conditions for granting paid educational leave to officials in the public administration and in the state-controlled sector, the Committee requests the Government to state the conditions that workers in the private sector need to fulfil in order to benefit from such leave, the length of the leave and the level of the cash benefits provided.

Article 6. The Committee once again requests the Government to indicate the manner in which employers' and workers' organisations and the institutions providing the education and training, are associated with the formulation and implementation of the policy for the promotion of paid educational leave.
