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:

Article 1, paragraph 3, of the Convention. Further to its previous comments, the Committee noted that the information supplied by the Government does not refer to nursing personnel who give nursing care and services on a voluntary basis. The Committee therefore requests the Government to supply information on the possible existence of such nursing personnel in Guinea and on any special provisions that are adopted in their regard. Furthermore, it requests the Government to supply a copy of the text of the conditions of service of nursing personnel which is currently under discussion as soon as it is adopted.

Article 2, paragraph 1. The Committee noted the information supplied by the Government on the policy concerning nursing services and nursing personnel in Guinea. It requests the Government to continue supplying information on this subject.

Article 2, paragraph 2(a) and Article 3. The Committee noted the information supplied by the Government on the education and training of nursing personnel and on the basic requirements regarding nursing education and training. It requests the Government to supply the text of laws and regulations covering this subject.

Article 2, paragraph 2(b). The Committee noted the information contained in the report on the remuneration of nursing personnel and it requests the Government to supply a copy of the legislative provisions and collective agreements that are applicable in this respect.

Article 6. The Committee once again requests the Government to supply information and the texts applicable in respect of: (a) hours of work; (b) weekly rest; and (d) the educational leave of nursing personnel.

Article 7. In its first report, the Government announced measures to improve the legislation respecting health and safety. The Committee requests the Government to supply information in its next report on any progress achieved in this respect.
