1. The Committee notes the Government’s comprehensive first report on the measures taken to give effect to the Convention, received in the ILO at the end of September 2005.

2. The Committee notes a communication received in September 2005 from the Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions (ZCTU), which contains observations concerning the application of the Convention by Zimbabwe. It notes that this communication was sent to the Government on 24 October 2005 for any comments it might wish to make on the matters raised therein. The Committee observes that no such comments have been received from the Government so far and hopes that the Government will communicate its comments with its next report, so as to enable the Committee to examine them at its next session.

[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2006.]
