Effect given to the recommendations of the Committee and the Governing Body
  1. 66. At its meeting in November 1998, the Committee had asked the Government to send a copy of the new law on the settlement of labour disputes to enable it to examine the law's contents in the light of the principles of freedom of association (see 311th Report, paras. 70-72).
  2. 67. In a communication dated 22 December 1999, the Government supplies the text of Act No. 168 of 12 November 1999 respecting the resolution of labour disputes, and indicates that this text was adopted following consultations with the social partners and in the light of the recommendations of the Committee of Experts on the Application of Conventions and Recommendations.
