The Committee notes the comments of the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU) of 10 August 2006, which refer to issues relating to the application of the Convention in practice (distribution of trade union assets) that are already under examination. The ICFTU also refers, among other matters, to obstacles to the exercise of trade union rights by organizations in the commercial sector. In this respect, the Committee requests the Government to provide its observations on the comments made by the ICFTU.

The Committee also requests the Government, in the context of the regular reporting cycle, to provide its comments for the Committee’s next session in November-December 2007 on all the matters raised in its previous direct request in 2005 (see 2005 direct request, 76th Session).
