The Committee notes that the Government’s report does not contain replies to its previous comments. It is therefore bound to reiterate its previous observation, which read as follows:

Article 4 of the Convention. The Government states that the representatives of trade union organizations and of "any other professional grouping" may conclude agreements on behalf of the organization that they represent.

The Committee requests the Government to indicate whether the representatives of these "professional groupings" can negotiate a collective agreement on behalf of a group of workers where a trade union organization has already been established and, if so, under what conditions.
