The Committee notes with regret 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, which read as follows:
Article 5 of the Convention. Medical certificate. With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes the information provided by the Government to the effect that Decree No. 45.969 of 15 October 1964 is still applicable. The Committee also notes the Government’s indication that the legislation providing that medical certificates are valid for three months is not available at the moment and will be transmitted to the Office as soon as possible. The Committee reminds the Government that according to section 187(6) of Decree No. 45.969 of 15 October 1964 medical certificates are valid for two years. It therefore requests the Government to indicate which of these periods of validity for medical certificates is applicable.
