The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its report.
Articles 4, 5 and 6 of the Convention. With regard to the right to authorize exceptions to the principle of weekly rest, the Committee notes that the Minister of Labour has not yet issued the order envisaged for this purpose under section 131(2) of the Labour Code. It would be grateful if the Government would indicate in its next report any measures which have been taken or are envisaged with a view to the authorization of such exceptions. It also requests the Government to provide information on the manner in which section 131(2) of the Labour Code is applied in practice, as this provision requires, in accordance with the objectives of Article 5 of the Convention, compensatory periods of rest in the event of suspensions or diminutions of the rest period. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide it with a list of the exceptions granted in accordance with Article 4 of the Convention, as soon as it is available.
Part VI of the report form. The Committee notes an observation made by the Confederation of Trade Unions of Rwanda (CESTRAR) concerning the obligation of the Government to communicate reports on the application of Conventions to the representative organizations (article 23, paragraph 2, of the Constitution of the ILO). The Committee invites the Government to provide any comments that it considers appropriate in this respect.
