The Committee takes note of the information provided with the Government’s report and in reply to its previous comments.

Article 8, paragraph 3, of the Convention. The Committee notes with interest that the Bill on Amendments and Supplements of the Labour Code, as approved by Decision No. 562 of 6 August 2003 of the Council of Ministers, proposes to repeal section 150(2) of the Labour Code, under which compensation of overtime work by rest is prohibited. It further notes that the draft amendment explicitly adds a new paragraph 3 to section 153, making provision for a minimum compensatory rest of 24 continuous hours for overtime work carried out on the two weekly rest days of a five-day working week, besides remuneration. Please provide a copy of the new legislation, once it has been adopted.
