Effect given to the recommendations of the Committee and the Governing Body

Effect given to the recommendations of the Committee and the Governing Body
  1. 143. At its last examination of the case, at its November 2005 meeting, the Committee formulated the following recommendations [see 338th Report, para. 1113]:
    • (a) As regards the judicial proceedings initiated on the basis of a request for the dissolution of the trade union “Idalia Silva” Workers’ Trade Union (STIS), the Committee once again requests the Government to keep it informed of the outcome of these proceedings, and emphasizes that allowing the representatives of a company to request the dissolution of a union may give rise to acts of interference by the employer.
    • (b) As regards the alleged death threats against trade unionists Marjorie Sequeira and Johana Rodríguez, the Committee requests the Government to keep it informed of the measures adopted by the judicial authority following the police inquiry.
  2. 144. In its communication of 14 January 2006, the complainant (National Federation of “Heroes and Martyrs” Trade Unions of the Textile, Clothing, Leather and Footwear Industry (FNSHM)) stated with regard to the “Idalia Silva” Workers’ Trade Union (STIS) in the export processing zone that the Second Labour Court of Managua handed down a ruling ordering that the case concerning dissolution of the trade union be shelved since neither of the parties had expedited the proceedings, and a subsequent ruling ordering the dissolution of the trade union, followed by cancellation of the trade union’s registration by the Ministry of Labour (notified on 28 November 2005). The complainant points out the contradiction between the two judicial decisions, which also violate the principle of double jeopardy. Moreover, the general secretary of the trade union, Ruth Meza Orozco, was dismissed on 23 December 2005 on grounds that she was no longer covered by trade union immunity, followed by Zoila Cáceres, secretary of the organization.
  3. 145. The Committee requests the Government to reply without delay to the additional information sent by the complainant, and to the Committee’s previous recommendations. The Committee regrets the Government’s delay in sending this information and requests it in particular to send the rulings handed down and information concerning the alleged threats against Marjorie Sequeira and Johana Rodríguez, the dissolution of the STIS and the dismissal of trade union officials Ruth Meza Orozco and Zoila Cáceres.
