The Committee notes the observations of the International Trade Union Corporation (ITUC) received on 31 August 2014 on the matters related to the application of the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to provide its comments in this regard.

The Committee notes as well the observations of the International Organisation of Employers (IOE) received on 1 September 2015.

The Committee takes note of the new Law 86/2013 of 19 September 2013 on the General Statute for Public Servants, whose article 51 recognizes the right of public servants to join any trade union of their choice. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the recognition of the right of public servants to establish their own unions as well as their other rights under the Convention.

The Committee also notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It is therefore bound to repeat its previous comments.

The Committee had taken note of the comments provided by the ITUC dated 31 July 2012 on the application of the Convention. The Committee requests again the Government to provide its observations thereon.

Article 2 of the Convention. Right of workers, without distinction whatsoever, to establish organizations of their own choosing. The Committee had noted in its previous comments that under the terms of section 124 of the Labour Code any organization requesting recognition as the most representative organization had to authorize the labour administration to check the register of its members and property. The Committee had noted that the Government indicates that this requirement will be removed from the labour law. The Committee requests again the Government to provide a copy of the legal text which repeals the requirement to check the register of property from the Labour Code.

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

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