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 comments.

Repetition
Article 2(1) of the Convention. Period of weekly rest. The Committee notes that section 114 of Legislative Decree No. 1/037 of 7 July 1993 provides for, “in every period of seven days, rest comprising at most twenty-four consecutive hours”, whereas Article 2(1) of the Convention provides that all persons to whom the Convention applies shall enjoy in every period of seven days a period of weekly rest comprising at least twenty-four consecutive hours. Since section 105 of the Labour Code of 1966 and section 3 of Ministerial Ordinance No. 650/22 of 17 February 1984 issuing regulations respecting work on the day of weekly rest and on public holidays are in full conformity with the Convention, it would appear that on this point the wording of section 114 of the Labour Code contains an error which the Government is requested to revise. The Committee would therefore be grateful if the Government would indicate in its next report the measures which have been taken or are envisaged to this end.
