The Committee notes the new comments of the Trade Union of Workers of Operators of Plants, Wells and Guards of the Municipal Water Company and its annexes (SITOPGEMA), dated 18 July 2005. These comments contain allegations concerning the procedure followed in the context of the legal action taken by the trade union to obtain payment of the overtime hours imposed upon workers by the municipal water enterprise of the city of Guatemala (EMPAGUA) and follow other comments made by the trade union organization received in July 2004 on the same subject, to which a reply has not yet been received. The Committee requests the Government to provide its observations in response to the comments of the SITOPGEMA and to reply in detail to the comments that it made in 2003 and 2004 concerning the application of the Convention.
