With reference to its previous observation concerning the extensive comments made by the Netherlands’ Trade Union Confederation (FNV), in a letter dated 25 August 2003, on the application of the various provisions of the Convention, the Committee notes the Government’s report for the period 1 June 2003 to 1 June 2005, which replies to some of the issues raised. This report and the replies of the Government were the subject of a further communication from the FNV dated 15 September 2005, in which the Confederation expresses concern about the application of most of the Articles of the Convention and provides copies of the relevant decisions of the Central Court of Appeal (CRvB). This communication was transmitted to the Government by the Office on 20 October 2005. Taking into account that the Government’s report on the application of the Convention is due in 2006, the Committee hopes that it will not fail to provide detailed information on all the points raised, including statistical data, as well as an English translation of the relevant provisions of the legislation. In the meantime, taking into account the extensive and complex nature of the problems raised by the FNV, the Committee wishes to remind the parties that they can have recourse to the technical services of the Office, which might help to clarify the issues in question. In this respect, the Committee also refers to the questions raised in its direct request of 2002, which it will consider together with the Government’s next report.
