Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 2000, publiée 89ème session CIT (2001)

The Committee notes the Government’s latest report, on the period ending June 1999. It recalls that for many years its comments have related to the need to give effect to Articles 5 and 7 of the Convention by amending sections 50 and 53 of Labour Decree No. 342 of 3 April 1969. Already in 1989, the Committee noted in a direct request that the Labour Advisory Committee had proposed to the Government an amendment of the 1969 Decree to this effect. The Committee regrets that no progress has been made since then and that the Government has merely indicated in its successive reports that the review procedure is proceeding. The Committee trusts that the draft codification of national labour legislation mentioned in the Government’s latest report will be adopted very shortly and that copies of the texts relating to application of the Convention will be transmitted to the ILO as soon as possible.
