Suites données aux recommandations du comité et du Conseil d’administration - Rapport No. 338, Novembre 2005

Effect given to the recommendations of the Committee and the Governing Body

1. 222. The Committee last examined this case concerning allegations of government interference in the organizational activities of trade unions, and more specifically the distribution of trade union assets in the context of a transition from a trade union monopoly regime to a situation of trade union pluralism at its November 2004 meeting [see 335th Report, paras. 124-126]. On that occasion, it urged the Government, once again, to rapidly hold further discussions with all interested parties with a view to finding a satisfactory solution for all concerned and to keep it informed of developments.
2. 223. In a communication dated 23 August 2005, the Government informed that civil cases concerning trade union property brought by the Office of the Prosecutor-General had been dropped and the distraints cancelled. The Government therefore considered that the complaint of the Lithuanian Trade Union Confederation lost its ground and purpose.
3. 224. The Committee notes this information with satisfaction.
