The Committee notes with regret that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that the next report will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous comments initially made in 2014. The Committee also notes that the Government had been requested to provide information to the Committee on the Application of Standards at the 106th Session of the International Labour Conference for failure to supply reports and information on the application of ratified Conventions.

Repetition

Article 3 of the Convention. Right of organizations to organize their activities and formulate their programmes. The Committee had requested the Government to amend section 116(3) of the Labour Proclamation according to which the agreement of more than half of the employees of an undertaking is necessary to hold a strike. The Government indicates that, pursuant to the current draft amendment initiated by the Ministry of Labour and Human Welfare, a simple majority of employees is required for calling a strike. While acknowledging the steps initiated by the Government to amend the relevant provision, the Committee recalls that, when legal provisions require a strike vote, the Government should ensure that only the votes cast are counted. The Committee hopes that section 116(3) of the Labour Proclamation will be amended accordingly in the very near future and requests the Government to report on the progress made in this respect.
