1. 47. The Committee last examined this case, which concerns a ban on trade union rights and activities at the Karachi Electric Company Ltd Supply Corporation (KESC), at its March 2009 meeting [see 353rd Report, paras 161–164]. On that occasion, it urged the Government, which is also one of the KESC shareholders, to ensure that a referendum for determining the collective bargaining agent (CBA) can take place in the KESC without further delay and to keep it informed in this respect.

3. 49. The Committee notes the information respecting the selection of the KESC Labour Union as collective bargaining agent and invites the complainant organizations to submit, if they so wish, their comments thereon.
