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:

The Committee notes with interest the information provided by the Government in its report. The Government is requested to provide further information in its next report on the following point.

Articles 4, 5 and 6 of the Convention. The Committee notes that under section 7 of the Labour Ordinance of 1952 the competent authority may grant permission for the performance of work on the weekly rest day if special circumstances demand; and that under section 10 of the Ordinance exemptions from the provision on weekly rest may also be granted in special cases for particular types of work in particular enterprises to be determined by the competent authority. It also notes that under the collective agreement of 1990 for the Aruba Refinery Rehabilitation Company work up to 60 hours a week, including overtime which may be on Sundays, is permitted. The Government is requested in future reports to indicate any other instances in which special permission has been granted to work on the weekly rest day under sections 7 or 10; and to provide a list of the enterprises which may be subject to the exemptions provided for under section 10. Please also indicate any provisions made in practice under section 10(2) for compensatory rest periods.
