The Committee notes that the Government's report does not contain any answer to its earlier comments. It must therefore repeat its previous observation, which read as follows:

For several years the Committee has observed that section 129, second paragraph, of the Labour Code provides that the length of service entitling workers to holiday can be of up to 24 or 30 months in the case of an individual contract or a collective agreement. It has further noted that in 1980 and 1988 a draft Decree was drawn up with the assistance of the ILO, providing for the amendment of section 129 of the Code so that persons covered by the Convention may benefit from a minimum holiday with pay every year. It has also noted that at the Conference Committee in 1992, the Government indicated that it started the process to amend the Labour Code to comply with the requirements of the Convention. The Committee notes that in its latest report the Government indicates that in its opinion the national legislation is not incompatible with the Convention. The Committee recalls that Article 2 of the Convention sets forth the right to annual holiday with pay of at least six working days after one year of continuous service. The Committee hopes that the Government will soon provide information on the measures adopted to ensure full compliance with the Convention.
