Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2006, publiée 96ème session CIT (2007)

The Committee notes the Government’s succinct report and regrets that it does not contain concrete answers to the points raised in the Committee’s previous direct request. It hopes that the Government’s next report will provide detailed information relating to the application of Articles 6 (conditions equivalent to the other workers for working time, weekly rest and educational leave) and 7 (provisions concerning occupational health and safety), of the Convention.

In addition, the Committee requests the Government to provide copies of the collective agreements relating to nursing personnel in different branches of industry, as well as of the collective agreement referred to in its report. The Committee also repeats its request for information on the provisions of the Statutory Instruments Nos. 126 and 127 relating to weekly rest and educational leave of the nursing personnel.

Point V of the report form. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the possible difficulties encountered in the implementation of the Convention or any further information that would enable the Committee to evaluate the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice in the country.
