The Committee takes note of the Government's report and observes that, as the revision of the Labour Code has not been completed, there have been no new developments with regard to legislation since its last observation.

The Committee recalls the need to amend section 119 of the Labour Code which empowers the administration to intervene in the collective bargaining process, and sections 121 and 122 of the Labour Code concerning prior authorisation for the entry into force of collective agreements, in order to bring the legislation into conformity with Article 4 of the Convention.

The Committee trusts that the draft Labour Code prepared in 1988 with ILO assistance will be adopted in the near future since, as the Government recalls in its last report, the above-mentioned provisions are not reproduced in it. It asks the Government to indicate any progress made in this respect in its next report.

In addition, the Committee is addressing a request directly to the Government about maintaining the provision of the Labour Code that gives effect to Articles 1 and 2 of the Convention.
