Effect given to the recommendations of the committee and the Governing Body
Effect given to the recommendations of the committee and the Governing Body- 70. The Committee last examined this case at its March 2014 meeting. On
that occasion the Committee trusted that the necessary steps would be taken to draw up
specific draft provisions to bring the Public Administration Careers Act into full
conformity with the principles of freedom of association and collective bargaining laid
down in the relevant Conventions so as to guarantee public servants who do not work in
the administration of the State adequate protection against anti-union discrimination
and interference, as well as the right to collective bargaining, and to ensure that the
complainant (the National Union of Education Workers – SINTE) may obtain legal
personality and be registered as a trade union [see 371st Report, paras 627–639].
- 71. The Committee notes with satisfaction that, in its communications of
17 and 18 May 2016, the Government informs that, pursuant to Resolution No. 2 of 15
April 2016, the complainant was registered and granted legal personality. The Committee
also notes with interest that the Government further informs about the preparation of a
draft bill on collective relations in the public sector to address the observations of
the ILO supervisory bodies in relation to the application of Conventions Nos 87 and 98,
and observes that these legislative matters are being followed up by the Committee of
Experts on the Application of Conventions and Recommendations.
