The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that the next report will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous comments.

Repetition

The Committee requests the Government to provide in its next report specific replies to the following questions concerning the Labour Code, which the Committee has been raising for a number of years.

Article 2 of the Convention. Recalling that the Convention does not authorize any distinction on grounds of age, the Committee requests the Government to take the necessary measures to amend section 212 of the Labour Code in order to ensure that minors who have reached the legal minimum age for access to employment (16 years, according to section 5 of the Labour Code) can exercise their trade union rights without the need for prior authorization from a parent or guardian.

Article 3. The Committee requests the Government to clarify whether a strike called following opposition to an arbitration award (in application of section 183 of the Labour Code) is considered lawful within the meaning of section 190 of the Labour Code.
