The Committee notes the information provided in the Government's report.

Article 3. The Committee had asked the Government to envisage amending or repealing section 374(a)-(c) of the Penal Code and section 82 of Ordinance No. 159 of 1964 limiting the right to strike, in order to bring its legislation into line with national case-law and practice and with the principles of freedom of association. It also had asked the Government to indicate whether strikes of public servants not exercising authority in the name of the State have been prohibited by local courts.

The Government states that the matter is under study by the Aruban Legislation Department and that more information in this respect will be provided in the next report. It adds that it will indicate, as soon as possible, which strikes have been - or have not been - prohibited by local courts.

The Committee expects the Government to give full details on these matters and in particular on the measures taken to bring its legislation into conformity with the principles of freedom of association.
