The Committee notes with regret that the Government's report contains no reply to its previous comments. It hopes that the next report will provide full information on the following points.

Article 3, paragraph 2, of the Convention. The Committee recalls that on ratifying the Convention, the Government undertook to guarantee that rural workers' organisations shall be independent and voluntary in character and shall remain free from all interference, coercion or repression.

The Committee notes, however, that several provisions of the Labour Code confer prerogatives on the single trade union, designated by name in the law as the "Central Council of the DRA's trade unions", in particular in the preparation of legislation and appointment to certain jobs (section 148(2) and section 3(4) of the Code). Furthermore, the Committee notes that the objects of the Code include the consolidation of labour discipline and the implementation of production plans (section 1(4) of the Code).

The Committee therefore requests the Government to provide detailed information on the role of the Peasants' Cooperatives Union in the implementation of the production plan and, if applicable, its powers in respect of labour discipline. In particular, it requests the Government to provide the statutory provisions regulating the Peasants' Cooperatives Union (the legislation under which it created: the Labour Code of 1987, the Act concerning the organisation and working of agricultural cooperatives, or another instrument) and to provide a copy of the recent statutes of the Union.

The Government is asked to report in detail for the period ending 30 June 1992.
