The Committee would be grateful to be provided with further information on the measures taken, within the framework of a national policy on paid educational leave for workers in all sectors of the economy in order to contribute to the achievement of the objectives set out in Article 3 of the Convention, and coordinated with the general policies enumerated in Article 4.
