Articles 2 and 4 of the Convention. In its previous direct request, the Committee had requested the Government to provide information on the legislation regulating shop stewards, including provisions foreseen in the forthcoming Trade Union Law, following past observations of the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) concerning the tasks of shop stewards which correspond to those of trade union representatives. The Committee notes that the Government indicates that it is in the process of drafting and finalizing the Trade Union Law, which will replace the relevant articles on shop stewards in the Labour Code when it is adopted. The Committee trusts that the Government will take the necessary steps so that the forthcoming Trade Union Law adequately ensures that where both trade union representatives and elected representatives exist in the same undertaking, appropriate measures are taken to ensure that the existence of elected representatives is not used to undermine the position of the trade unions or their representatives, and to encourage cooperation between the elected representatives and the trade unions concerned and their representatives. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on any steps taken.
