In its previous comments, the Committee drew attention to section 251 of the Labour Code, which provides for the penal disqualification from holding executive or administrative office in occupational trade unions, except for offences committed for political or trade union reasons. The Committee takes due note of the information provided by the Government in its last report to the effect that no case has been recorded in practice resulting in incapacity or disqualification under the provisions of section 251 of the Labour Code. The Government repeats that this provision explicitly excludes offences committed for political or trade union reasons, as well as involuntary injury or homicide, thereby preventing any abuse in the application of these provisions. While taking note of this information, the Committee recalls that it is of the view that incapacity or disqualification from holding trade union office should be limited to persons convicted for acts which call into question the integrity of the person concerned. The Committee therefore requests once again the Government to continue to keep it informed in its future reports of any development in this regard.
