The Committee notes the Government’s reply to the comments made by the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) concerning the obstacles which continue to prevent the Labour Union of Djibouti (UDT) from carrying out its activities normally. It recalls that these facts are the subject of a complaint made by the UDT that is being examined by the Committee on Freedom of Association (Case No. 2753). The Committee notes with concern the allegations made in 2013 by the ITUC concerning arrests and dismissals of trade unionists in the port sector as well as other serious violations of the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to send its observations in this regard.

Legislative issues. The Committee recalls that it has been commenting for many years on the need to take measures to amend the following legislative provisions:

-section 5 of the Act on associations which requires organizations to obtain authorization prior to their establishment as trade unions; and
-section 23 of Decree No. 83-099/PR/FP of 10 September 1983 which confers upon the President of the Republic broad powers to requisition public servants.

Noting the Government’s indication that it will take the necessary measures to submit the requested amendments to the National Council of Labour, Employment and Social Security (CONTESS), the Committee trusts that the Government will indicate in its next report concrete progress in this regard.

The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.
