Effect given to the recommendations of the Committee and the Governing Body
  1. 81. At its meeting of March 1996, the Committee made the following recommendation: "Regarding the dismissal allegedly on financial grounds of 39 workers four days after the end of the dispute in the Perses S.A. Enterprise, the Committee requests the Government to conduct an inquiry into the reasons for the dismissals and, should it find that they were ordered on anti-union grounds, to take steps to have the persons concerned reinstated in their jobs. The Committee requests the Government to keep it informed on this subject" (see 302nd Report, para. 439). During its previous examination of the case in November 1996, the Committee noted the Government's statements that the General Inspectorate for Labour and Social Security was carrying out an investigation into the allegations made (see 305th Report, paras. 64 and 65).
  2. 82. In a communication dated 5 March 1997, the Government states that the investigation is at the preliminary stage, i.e. the evidence presented by the parties concerned, consisting mainly of eyewitness accounts, is being collected and processed and that therefore no final conclusions have yet been reached on the matter. The Government adds that when the administrative procedure under way reaches its final stage, the Committee will be informed of the outcome.
  3. 83. The Committee takes note of this information and since the inquiry has already taken one year it hopes that the administrative authority will expedite the process and asks the Government to take steps to this end. The Committee awaits the final outcome of the inquiry.
