The Committee notes the comments made by the Trade Union Association of Customs Officials (ASEPA) on the application of the Convention.

In its comments, the ASEPA states that, by virtue of Executive Decree No. 23116-MP, published in La Gaceta No. 76 of 21 April 1994, provisions were adopted which contravene the terms of labour law and ratified Conventions, including Convention No. 89. The ASEPA also states that the appeal against Executive Decree No. 23116-MP, which violates ratified Conventions, including Convention No. 89, was rejected by the Constitutional Court on its substance, without considering its implications.

The Committee trusts that the Government will supply detailed comments on this information, which was transmitted by letter dated 17 January 1995.
