Effect given to the recommendations of the Committee and the Governing Body
- 64. At its November 2008 meeting, the Committee formulated the following recommendation on an issue still pending [see 351st Report, para. 671]: the Committee deplores the criminal complaint made [against trade union leaders] by the member of parliament for submitting a complaint to the ILO and requests the Government to keep it informed of the outcome and to verify that no trade union leader is sanctioned for having submitted a complaint to the ILO.
- 65. In its communication of 27 April 2009, the Government states that the member of parliament who had filed the criminal complaint stated in writing on 7 February 2009 that it was not in his interest to pursue the complaint, which was made several years earlier, and that he has requested the closure of the file on this case. The Committee takes note of this information.
- 66. At its November 2008 meeting, the Committee made other recommendations relating to existing restrictions on the right to bargain collectively in the public sector [see 351st Report, para. 671]. In its reply, the Government sends observations in this respect and includes the opinion of the Supreme Court of Justice. The Government indicates that it will inform the Committee which other authorities it consults and that it has taken measures to move along the processing of the bills on collective bargaining in the public sector and on the ratification of Conventions Nos 151 and 154. The Committee will examine these matters when it receives the comments from the other authorities consulted by the Government (including the Legislative Assembly, which is the competent state authority on these matters) and has all the necessary information at its disposal.
