Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 2022, Publicación: 111ª reunión CIT (2023)

Repetition

The Committee notes with deep concern that the Government’s report, due since 2007, has not been received. In the light of its urgent appeal to the Government in 2020, the Committee is proceeding with the examination of the application of the Convention on the basis of the information at its disposal. The Committee recalls that it previously raised questions about compliance with the Convention in an observation. Having noted the allegations of the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) concerning the refusal of the authorities to recognize a number of trade unions, the Committee recalled that the existence of trade unions established freely by workers is a prerequisite for the application of the Convention. The Committee also made recommendations to bring the labour legislation into conformity with the Convention, in particular with regard to the right to organize and to collective bargaining of workers in the public administration, and requested the Government to provide detailed information on the application of the Convention to public servants not engaged in the administration of the State.In the absence of any indication of progress on these pending issues, despite the technical assistance the Office has provided to the country on several occasions, the Committee refers to its previous observation adopted in 2020 and urges the Government to reply in full to these comments.
