The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. The Committee again recalls that its previous comments referred to the need to transmit the implementing legislation of the new Labour Code respecting minimum service as well as any other decree respecting the application of the Convention to enable it to examine the scope of reference of the principles of freedom of association.

The Committee moreover notes the communications transmitted by the Federation of Energy, Mines and Affiliated Free Trade Unions (FLEEMA) and the Confederation of Free Trade Unions of Gabon (CGSL) concerning the allegations of interference in the exercise of the right of freedom of association by several employers and the public authorities. The Committee requests the Government to provide any information which it considers useful in respect of these allegations in its next report.
