The Committee notes the comments submitted by the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) in 2013 concerning serious violations of the Convention and requests the Government to provide its observations thereon.

The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation.

Article 3 of the Convention. Right of workers’ organizations to conduct their activities in freedom and formulate their programmes. In its previous comments the Committee requested the Government to amend the legislation on the minimum service organized by the employer to be maintained in the public service that is indispensable for safeguarding the general interest (section 248-15 of the Labour Code), in order to limit the minimum service to operations which are strictly necessary to meet the basic needs of the population, within the framework of a negotiated minimum service. The Committee noted the Government’s indication that the adoption of the revised Code was envisaged for the second quarter of 2012. The Committee also noted the Government’s undertaking to take account, in the context of this revision, of the principles which it recalled in its previous comments. The Committee requests the Government to provide information in its next report on the progress of the work to revise the Labour Code and reminds the Government of the possibility of seeking technical assistance from the International Labour Office as part of this work.

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the near future.
