The Committee notes with deep concern that the Government’s report, due since 2016, has not been received. In light of its urgent appeal launched to the Government in 2020, the Committee proceeds with the examination of the application of the Convention on the basis of whatever information is at its disposal. The Committee recalls that it has been raising issues concerning the observance of the Convention in an observation and a direct request, including a request to investigate serious allegations of arrests and detentions of trade unionists in the context of a teachers’ strike in 2013, as well as longstanding recommendations to bring the Labour Code into conformity with the Convention concerning limitations on strike action (minimum services and sanctions) that unduly restrict the right of workers’ organizations to organize their activities in full freedom and to formulate their programmes. Not having received any additional observations from the social partners, nor having at its disposal any indication of progress on these pending matters, the Committee refers to its previous observation and direct request adopted in 2020 and urges the Government to provide a full reply thereto. To this end, the Committee recalls that the Government may avail itself of the ILO’s technical assistance.
[The Government is asked to reply in full to the present comments in 2022.]
