Convention (n° 140) sur le congé-éducation payé, 1974 - Jersey

1. The Committee notes the Government’s report, received in September 2003, indicating that there has been no change since the previous report. Regarding the implementation of the Training and Employment Partnership (TEP), the Government indicates that £2 million were spent during the period covered by the report. Please continue providing information on the implementation of the TEP in the matters concerned by the Convention.

2. Leave for purposes of general and trade union education. In relation to its 2002 request, asking the Government to indicate the manner in which the granting of leave for purposes of general and trade union education is ensured, the report indicates that these points are to be developed by the Social Security Committee and the Education Committee and that a group is working on a strategy. The Government adds that this strategy does not yet constitute a policy. Please provide information on any developments in relation to the work of that group and, in the meantime, indicate the current arrangements for the granting of paid educational leave for the purpose of general and trade union education (Article 2(a) and (c) of the Convention).
