Effect given to the recommendations of the Committee and the Governing Body
  1. 80. At its March 1999 meeting (see 313th Report, paras. 220-243), the Committee had requested the Government to take all the necessary measures to ensure that legally established trade union organizations including the Force ouvrière togolaise (FOT), the complainant in the present case, could carry on their activities without any prior authorization or interference by the public authorities, and to ensure that, in accordance with section 5 of the Labour Code, the acknowledgement of filing of the by-laws was issued to the complainant, and to keep it informed of any measures taken in this regard.
  2. 81. In a communication dated 30 August 1999, the Government states that it has asked the Minister of the Interior and Security to take all the necessary measures to ensure that the formalities for the registration of trade union organizations comply with the provisions of section 5 of the Labour Code, and that the Minister of the Public Service, Labour and Employment has asked the General Secretary of the FOT to contact the minister responsible for issuing acknowledgments in connection with his request.
  3. 82. The Committee notes with concern that the by-laws of the Force ouvrière togolaise (FOT) were filed on 5 April 1995 and that the acknowledgment of filing was requested again by the General Secretary of the FOT on 22 June 1999. The Committee requests the Government to issue without delay the acknowledgement in question, which the FOT has been awaiting for four years in order to be able to carry on its activities freely, and to keep it informed of any measures taken in this regard.
