Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1991, Publicación: 78ª reunión CIT (1991)

The Committee notes the comments made by the French Democratic Confederation of Labour (CFDT), according to which there are many cases in which the Act respecting Sunday shop opening is not respected. The CFDT states that in this connection employees have been subject to illegal constraints and that many court proceedings have been held. Draft legislation that is currently being formulated could, according to the CFDT, enable the various types of authorisation and the procedures for collective bargaining in this field to be better regulated.

The Committee would be grateful if the Government would supply further information concerning the manner in which the Convention is applied, including the texts of any judicial decisions handed down in this connection and of any regulations or other measures that it considers appropriate in the light of the CFDT's comments (see Parts III, IV and V of the report form).

The Government is asked to report in detail for the period ending 30 June 1991.
