1. Granting of paid educational leave to all workers. The Committee notes that, in its brief reply to the direct request sent in 2003, the Government indicates that, in respect of the costs concerning general, social and civic education, including trade union education, employees suffer no deductions from their salaries. The Committee would appreciate receiving further information on the measures that have been taken, within the framework of a national policy on paid educational leave for workers in all sectors of the economy, to contribute, in association with employers’ and workers’ organizations and institutions, to the achievement of the objectives set out in Article 3 of the Convention, and that have been coordinated with the general policies enumerated in Article 4 of the Convention.

2. Discrimination. The Committee also notes that its policy statement that whenever opportunity for training occurs, applications are invited through published notices in local news media and without regard to race, colour, sex, religion, political opinion, national extraction or social origin. The Committee recalls that, in its previous comments, it requested the Government to confirm whether paragraph 1.2 of section I of the Parastatal Service Regulations, First Edition, 1984, governing the terms and conditions applicable to attendance at in-service courses or higher education in East Africa, which require recommendation by the party, is still in force. The Committee again asks the Government to provide a copy of the text that has replaced or revoked the 1984 Parastatal Service Regulations. Please describe the measures taken to ensure that workers have equal access to paid educational leave irrespective of race, colour, sex, religion, political opinion, national extraction or social origin (Article 8).

3. Practical application. Please include in the next report a general appreciation of the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice, including, if available, the number of workers granted paid educational leave (Part V of the report form).
