The Committee notes with concern that the Government’s report has not been received. It expects that the next report will contain full information on the matters raised in the Committee’s previous direct request. The Committee also notes that the Government had been requested to provide information to the Committee on the Application of Standards at the 106th Session at the International Labour Conference, for failure to supply reports and information on the application of ratified Conventions. Noting that the Government received technical assistance from the Office and the International Training Centre of the ILO in this respect in November 2017, the Committee expects that the Government will show a more cooperative attitude in the future by fulfilling its constitutional obligations.

The Committee once again requests the Government to provide its comments in reply to the observations presented by the Confederation of Trade Unions of Congo (CSC) in 2014, regarding the anti-union dismissals of trade union representatives.

In view of the numerous cases examined by the Committee on Freedom of Association which mainly concern acts of anti-union discrimination against union leaders and representatives, the Committee is once again bound to urge the Government to take all the necessary measures (for example, by giving specific instructions to the labour inspectorate) to guarantee in practice the full application of the provisions of the Convention, particularly those concerning the protection of workers’ representatives and the facilities to be afforded to them for the performance of their functions.
