The Committee notes the information provided in the Government's report. Concerning section 263 of the Labor Code, providing for compulsory arbitration in industries "indispensable to the national interest", the Committee notes that the Government does not refer in its most recent report to Senate Bill No. 1757 which proposed amendments to this section. The Committee requests the Government to provide information concerning the fate of this Bill. The Committee also notes the Government's statement that the proposed Bill on the New Civil Service Code, which would grant government workers the right to strike in certain circumstances, is still pending before the Senate Committee on Civil Service and Government Reorganization. The Government states further that as a matter of procedure, the Bill must be re-filed. The Committee takes note of this information and requests the Government to continue to keep it informed of the status of the Bill.
