The Committee takes note of the Government’s report.

In its previous comments, on the matter of sympathy strikes the Committee reminded the Government that a general prohibition on such strikes could lead to abuse and that workers should be able to take such action provided the initial strike they are supporting is itself lawful (see General Survey of 1994 on freedom of association and collective bargaining, paragraph 168).

In its report, the Government states that the Industrial Relations Act does not address sympathy strikes and has not yet been amended. The Committee requests the Government once again to state whether, in practice, workers may engage in sympathy strikes without incurring sanctions, and to address the matter eventually within the framework of the legislative review by the Labour Advisory Board. The Committee requests the Government to keep it informed in this regard.
