The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government in reply to its request. It notes in particular the provisions of Ordinance No. 91/026 of 11 March 1991 which guarantees for employees who are selected by the management of the enterprise to undertake a training or further training course, that the period of training will be considered to be a period of work, and it would be grateful if the Government would supply the text of this Ordinance. With regard to the provisions which are applicable to public servants, the Committee notes that the Government refers to the general conditions of service of the public service without specifying whether provisions have been adopted under these general conditions of service in order to organize paid educational leave.

The Committee notes the information concerning the financial assistance provided by the National Vocational Training Fund (FNQP). Please state how the FNQP contributes to financing arrangements for paid educational leave, in accordance with Article 7 of the Convention, and specify the sums allocated for this purpose.

With reference to the comments that it has been making for several years, the Committee trusts that the Government will supply in its next report detailed information demonstrating that it has formulated and is applying, in accordance with Article 2, a policy designed to promote the granting of paid educational leave, in association with employers' and workers' organizations and institutions or bodies providing education and training, in accordance with Article 6.
