Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 2006, publiée 96ème session CIT (2007)

Convention (n° 98) sur le droit d'organisation et de négociation collective, 1949 - République dominicaine (Ratification: 1953)

The Committee notes the comments of the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU) of 10 August 2006, which refer, for the most part, to pending legislative issues and issues relating to the application of the Convention in practice which are already being examined. Moreover, the ICFTU cites the dismissal of all the founding members of a trade union which the administrative authority had refused to register. In this respect, the Committee asks the Government to send its observations regarding the ICFTU’s allegations.

The Committee also asks the Government to communicate, in accordance with the regular reporting cycle and in time for its next meeting in November-December 2007, its observations on all the legislative issues and issues relating to the application of the Convention in practice that were mentioned in the Committee’s previous observation in 2005 (see 2005 observation, 76th Session).
