1. 109. The Committee last examined this case, which concerns alleged acts of anti-union discrimination and refusal to recognize the Syndicat des Travailleurs des Etablissements Privés (STEP) by the Phil Alain Didier Co. Ltd (PAD), at its November 2011 meeting [see 362nd Report, paras 92–97]. On that occasion, the Committee, noting that there were no representative workers’ organization in the PAD, requested further information from the Government and the complainant organization on the status of the STEP in the PAD. The Committee also requested the Government to keep it informed of developments with respect to the judicial proceedings related to the dismissals of Mr Martinet and Mr Lagaillarde.
2. 110. In a communication dated 25 May 2012, the Government indicates that the cases of unjustified termination of employment of Mr Lagaillarde and Mr Martinet were not heard by the courts since the parties reached a settlement agreement in the sum of MUR75,000, respectively. The Committee takes due note of the information provided from the Government on the settlement of the dismissal cases of Mr Martinet and Mr Lagaillarde.
