The Committee notes the Government's first two reports on the application of the Convention. While it appreciates the substantial information supplied, the Committee notes that its reports relate to policies and programmes on education and vocational training in general, and on objectives and achievements in this field, rather than on the effect given to the provisions of the Convention, the specific purpose of which is to promote the granting of paid educational leave as defined in Article 1.

The Committee would be grateful if the Government would supply full information in reply to each question on the report form. In particular, please describe in what way paid educational leave is granted in practice for each of the educational purposes provided in Article 2, specifying the conditions for granting leave, its duration and the level of financial benefits paid.

The Government might find it useful to refer to the developments described in regard to paid educational leave in its 1991 General Survey (paragraphs 325 to 460) which might possibly assist understanding the requirements of the Convention and in preparation of the report.

[The Government is asked to report in detail in 1998.]
