The Committee notes with interest the information provided in the Government's first report. It requests the Government to provide clarification on the following point.

Article 3. The Committee notes that section 21 of the Trades Union Act provides that trade union members dismissed because of their election to a post in the trade union shall be reinstated in their posts. It further notes that section 2 of the Act provides that state bodies, employers and their authorized representatives shall be prohibited from interfering with the internal affairs of trade unions and that individuals who interfere with the legitimate activities of trade unions shall be liable under law. The Committee recalls the importance it places upon providing sufficiently dissuasive sanctions as a means of preventing acts of anti-union discrimination and requests the Government to indicate whether any sanctions exist to ensure respect for the rights set forth in Articles 1 and 2 of the Convention and, if so, to provide copies of the relevant legislative texts.
