The Committee takes note of the Government’s report.
It notes the Government’s statement that the Trade Union Act, 1926 that empowers the workers of the country including those in agriculture to establish trade unions was amended by the Trade Union (Amendment) Act, 2001. The Committee regrets, however, that the Government failed to supply information concerning the number of self-employed workers engaged in agriculture who are union members and to provide statistics more generally on the number and type of agricultural workers’ unions registered under the Trade Union Act. The Committee therefore once again reiterates its request.
