The Committee takes note of the texts of the three basic Acts of 1991 respecting labour adopted by the Romanian Parliament: Act No. 54 respecting trade unions of 1 August, Act No. 13 on collective labour agreements of 8 February, and Act No. 15 on the settlement of collective labour disputes, and of the new Constitution of 8 December 1991.

The Committee observes with interest that the new Acts, in conjunction with the repeal of several legislative provisions on which it commented earlier, change the general orientation of the industrial relations system, establish trade union pluralism and the independence of the trade union movement, and recognise the principle of free negotiation of collective labour agreements.

The Committee is also addressing a direct request to the Government on certain points. Act No. 54 respecting trade unions of 1 August 1991 Act No. 13 on collective labour agreements of 8 February 1991 Act No. 15 on the settlement of collective labour disputes of 1991 Constitution of 8 December 1991
