The Committee takes due note of the Government’s response to the observations provided by the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) in its communications of 2012 and 2013 in which it indicates that the issue regarding the high representation thresholds in order to bargain collectively, 20 per cent of employees on an enterprise level and 15 per cent of employees on a sectoral level, is yet to be discussed by the social partners and that it will be tackled during the review of the Labour Relations Act, 2006 (LRA 2006), which is expected to occur in 2014. With respect to the export processing zones (EPZs), the Government indicates that intensive labour inspections have greatly improved the situation and that most of the EPZs are now unionized. The Committee requests the Government to indicate the outcome of discussions with the social partners and any measures taken thereof in relation to obstacles to the exercise of collective bargaining rights and in particular the requirement in practice of very high representation thresholds. The Committee requests the Government to transmit the final version of the LRA 2006 with its next report.
