With reference to its comments made since 1969 relating to the exclusion of agricultural workers from the scope of the Labour Code, the Committee notes the Government's statement that the draft Legislative Decree to repeal section 186, which contains the said exclusion, was submitted to the competent authorities on 23 February 1991.
Recalling the previous statement made by the Government that persons engaged in agriculture have, in practice, always enjoyed the same rights of association and combination as industrial workers, the Committee trusts that this draft Decree will be adopted in the very near future by the competent authorities in order to bring the legislation into conformity with current practice and with the Convention. It requests the Government to supply a copy of the Labour Code, as amended, once it has been adopted.
