Articles 1 and 2 of the Convention. Scope of application of the rules relating to weekly rest. The Committee notes the information provided by the Government that weekly rest in rail transport is established by section 75 of the collective agreement for the Cameroon Railway Company (CAMRAIL), the provisions of which are complemented by CAMRAIL’s internal regulations. Since these documents are not available to the Office, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide a copy of these texts with its next report. Furthermore, the Committee notes that the Government does not reply to the observations of the General Union of Cameroon Workers (UGTC) which were transmitted to it on 4 October 2005, and in particular to the allegations that CAMRAIL, and other enterprises, do not grant their workers the weekly rest to which they are entitled under Article 2 of the Convention. The Committee once again requests the Government to reply to the comments made by the UGTC.

Furthermore, the Committee notes that, in reply to its previous comment, in which it noted that weekly rest in air and inland waterway transport companies was governed in principle by special provisions under section 1(2) of Order No. 22/MLTS/DEGRE of 27 May 1969, the Government indicates that weekly rest in inland waterway transport is not, for the time being, governed by any collective agreement. The Committee understands, according to the information provided previously by the Government, that air and inland waterway transport companies, of which there are very few on the national territory, are in fact governed by the general provisions applicable to weekly rest. It requests the Government to specify what provisions currently in force are applicable to workers employed in these sectors. The Committee also requests the Government to keep the Office informed of any draft regulations or collective agreement relating to weekly rest and applying specifically to air and inland waterway transport. Finally, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide a copy of the text governing weekly rest in the public service.
