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

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

Article 3 of the Convention (Right of foreigners to hold trade union office). The Committee notes that under section 2 of Act No. 88.009 of 18 May 1988 on freedom of association and protection of the right to organise, the members of a union's executive committee must be nationals of one of the States to be listed by a Decree of the Council of Ministers on condition that those concerned can prove three years' residence in the Central African Republic, that they have attained their majority and that the legislation of the countries of which they are nationals recognises reciprocal rights to Central African Republic nationals in those countries. The Committee considers that the inclusion of a State in the above-mentioned list appears to be at the complete discretion of the Minister. It accordingly asks the Government to indicate whether it is legally possible for a State not to figure on the list even when its legislation does recognise reciprocal rights to Central African Republic workers resident in its territory.
