Effect given to the recommendations of the Committee and the Governing Body
  1. 124. In its previous examination of the case at its June 2010 meeting the Committee made the following recommendation, among others, on issues that remained pending [see the 357th Report, para. 1189]:
    • … Considering that the intervention of the CNE in the elections of the executive board of the complainant trade union seriously violates Convention No. 87, the Committee must again urge the Government to exclude any intervention by the CNE in these elections, to substantially amend or repeal the rules relating to the CNE in trade union elections, to respect the elections of the complainant trade union and to refrain from invoking alleged irregularities or appeals to prevent it from bargaining collectively. The Committee requests the Government to take steps to amend the legislation to prevent this type of interference and to keep it informed in this regard …
  2. 125. In its communication of 21 February 2011, the Government states with regard to the election of the National Press Trade Union (SNTP) that on 10 December 2009, the union held free and democratic elections in full accordance with the inalienable constitutional right, and that there was absolutely no interference by any authority of the Venezuelan State.
  3. 126. The Committee notes this information with interest.
