Suites données aux recommandations du comité et du Conseil d’administration - Rapport No. 329, Novembre 2002

Effect given to the recommendations of the Committee and the Governing Body

1. 25. The Committee last examined this case at its meeting in November 2001. On that occasion, it urged the Government to take the necessary measures rapidly in order to conduct a poll to determine whether PROMYANA and the Association of Democratic Syndicates (ADS) did meet the necessary requirements to establish representativeness for participation in the National Tripartite Council. It further requested the Government to keep it informed of the progress made in this respect [see 326th Report, paras. 27-30].
2. 26. In a communication dated 11 September 2002, the Government states that a draft law on amendments and supplements to the Labour Code, including a part that concerns the representativeness of the workers’ organizations, has been submitted to the National Assembly. The Government indicates that, following the adoption of these amendments, secondary legislation will shortly be elaborated, which will regulate the order of establishment of available criteria for representativeness of employers’ and employees’ organizations at national level, under which each workers’ organization will be able to apply for representativeness.
3. 27. The Committee takes due note of this information. It asks the Government to provide it with a copy of the amendments to the Labour Code as soon as they have been adopted by the National Assembly. It also requests the Government to keep it informed of developments regarding the new legislation which will regulate the criteria for representativeness of workers and employers’ organizations at the national level.
