The Committee notes the comments of the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC), dated 30 August 2013, and of the General Union of Workers of Cameroon (UGTC), dated 20 September 2013, concerning anti-union discrimination against the executives of a member organization (SNEGCBEFCAM). The Committee asks the Government to send observations in reply to these comments.

The Committee notes that the ITUC and the UGTC also denounce the continuing lack of collective bargaining in the public sector and the difficulties inherent in implementing the collective agreements concluded in the media and security sectors. In this respect, the Committee notes that the Government, in its report, quotes a number of measures taken to apply collective agreements. These include: the involvement of the social partners; action taken by the labour inspectorate; and the introduction of a mechanism to evaluate the effectiveness of national collective agreements in force. The Committee asks the Government to provide detailed information on the measures it has quoted to ensure the effective implementation of collective agreements in the enterprises concerned, and to indicate any measures taken or contemplated to promote collective bargaining in the public sector.
