The Committee takes note of the Government’s report.

In the comments it has been making for several years, the Committee noted that section 98 of the Syrian Labour Code, 1959, allowed the authorities to refuse approval of a collective agreement or to quash any clause liable to harm the country’s economic interests, and asked the Government to amend this section.

The Committee notes with satisfaction the adoption of Act No. 24 of 10 December 2000, section 1 of which repeals the provision in question.
