The Committee notes the Government's report and, in particular, the promulgation of Act No. 792 of 24 February 1994 on trade unions. Similarly, the Committee notes the draft act on collective agreements which has been prepared with ILO technical assistance.

Articles 1 and 3 of the Convention. While it notes that Act No. 792 on trade unions prohibits any discrimination on the basis of membership of a trade union, the Committee requests the Government to indicate in its next report what sanctions can be imposed in cases where acts of anti-union discrimination are committed and whether protection against such acts applies to both trade union leaders and affiliated workers. Furthermore, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate how the system of protection functions in practice.

Article 4. The Committee requests the Government to indicate whether the provisions in section 14 of Act No. 792 on trade unions in regard to collective bargaining apply to enterprises in the private sector.

Finally, the Committee requests the Government to inform it in its next report whether the draft act on collective agreements has been adopted and to keep it informed of any new legislative texts adopted as a result of the economic changes to which the Government refers in its report.
