In its previous comments on the observations of the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC), the Committee asked the Government to hold an inquiry into the allegation of anti-union dismissals in export processing zones and various enterprises. The Committee notes in this connection the information supplied by the Government referring to the rights and remedies established by law that apply to export processing zones, and the measures taken to promote collective bargaining, including the establishment of a Tripartite Labour Committee for Export Processing Zones, which signed agreements in 2009 and 2010 for the benefit of workers, which cover the fundamental Conventions of the ILO. The Committee requests the Government to continue to provide information on the exercise of trade union rights in export processing zones, including the number of trade union organizations and the size of their membership, the number of collective agreements signed and their coverage, complaints filed for anti-union discrimination, etc.
