The Committee notes with satisfaction the adoption of Decree No. 960 of 12 April 1991 amending section 16(b) of Decree No. 770 of 1975 relating to health and maternity insurance, so as to align, in conformity with this provision of the Convention, the duration of maternity benefits with that of maternity leave (12 weeks), as set out in section 236 of the Labour Code amended by section 34 of Act No. 50 of 1990.
