The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation which read as follows:
Article 4(a) of the Convention. In its previous observations, the Committee had reiterated the need to amend section 41(2)(a) of the Labour Decree of 1967 which, contrary to the Convention, permits the suspension of the prohibition of night work by women when work is interrupted by reason of a strike. The Government states, in its report, that the issue has been referred to the tripartite National Advisory Committee on Labour and it hopes that the Committee which is presently addressing other equally important issues would appropriately tackle the issue with the view of amending the offending provision of the law.
The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the very near future and requests it to indicate any progress achieved in this regard.
