- 113. The issues pending in the present case refer mainly to the allegations of dismissal of trade union officials in the context of mass dismissals of public servants for partisan political reasons, which affected thousands of public servants since the new Government took over (September 1999) [see 330th Report, para. 974]. The Committee made the following recommendations at its March 2003 meeting [see 330th Report, para. 977]:
- – the Committee requests the Government to examine the possibility of offering new posts to the union officers dismissed, on the understanding that it is for the complainant to demonstrate the status of the 60 persons concerned as union officers. The Committee requests the Government to keep it informed in this respect;
- – the Committee requests the Government to send it a copy of the ruling given in the criminal trial of the union officer Alberto Ibarra for offences against honour.
- 114. In its communication of 30 October 2003, the Government states, with regard to the 60 persons mentioned by the complainant organization as being trade union officials, that in the documents submitted it has not noted that any of these are accredited as trade union officials. The complainant organization has also not provided proof to uphold this allegation, as requested by the Committee. With regard to the information requested on the ruling given in the criminal trial of Alberto Ibarra, the Government states that the hearing set for April 2003 was held but that the decision relating to this is pending.
- 115. The Committee notes this information. The Committee requests the Government to send it a copy of the ruling in the criminal trial of the union officer Alberto Ibarra for offences against honour, when this is handed down.
