The Committee notes the comments of the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU) of 10 August 2006, which refer in a general manner to the pending legislative issues relating to the application of the Convention which are now being examined. The ICFTU also indicates the arrest and disappearance of trade union leaders and the arrest and imprisonment without charge of an employers’ leader. In this regard, while recalling that the rights of workers’ and employers’ organizations can only be exercised in a climate that is free from violence, pressure or threats of any kind against these organizations’ leaders and members and that it is for governments to ensure that this principle is respected, the Committee asks the Government to provide its observations relating to the comments made by the ICFTU.

Moreover, the Committee requests the Government to provide, in time for its next session in November-December 2007 and in accordance with the regular reporting cycle, its observations on all the legislative issues and issues relating to the application of the Convention in practice which were mentioned in the Committee’s previous direct request in 2005 (see 2005 direct request, 76th Session).
