Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 1992, Publicación: 79ª reunión CIT (1992)

Convenio sobre el derecho de sindicación y de negociación colectiva, 1949 (núm. 98) - Reino Unido de Gran Bretaña e Irlanda del Norte (Ratificación : 1950)

The Committee notes the communications received from the Government dated 5 July 1991 and 10 February 1992, the National Union of Teachers (NUT) dated 19 and 25 April 1991, the World Confederation of the Teaching Profession (WCOTP) dated 24 April 1991, the Trade Union Congress (TUC) dated 23 October 1991 and 10 January 1992, and the Career Teachers' Organisation (NASUWT) dated 17 December 1991. The trade unions' communications concerned mainly the determination of teachers' pay and work conditions in England and Wales, in the light of the School Teachers' Pay and Conditions Act, 1991, which came into force on 22 August 1991.

The Committee will take these issues into account, in the light of the observations transmitted by the Government and the various trade union organisations concerned, at its next examination of the Convention. The Committee would appreciate being provided with information on the functioning and application in practice of the pay review machinery for school teachers.
