Suites données aux recommandations du comité et du Conseil d’administration - Rapport No. 348, Novembre 2007

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

1. 179. At its meeting in June 2006, the Committee requested the Government to communicate the ruling handed down with respect to the dismissal of trade unionists Mr Guido Siviria and Mr Orlando Acuña, and to indicate whether the trade unionist Mr Otiel Montero had initiated legal action in connection with his dismissal (these persons had been dismissed for establishing the Trade Union of Revolutionary Workers of the New Millennium and had been working in the INLACA Corporation) [see 336th Report, para. 137]. The Committee recalled that the allegations date back to 2001 and stressed that justice delayed is justice denied. The Committee trusts that the judicial authorities will hand down their ruling in the near future [see 342nd Report, para. 178].
2. 180. In its communications dated 3 and 9 May 2007, the Government states that, on 26 September 2006, the workers, Mr Guido Siviria and Mr Orlando Acuña, requested that a ruling be handed down on the substance of the case. As the case is currently being heard at the last instance, the Government will provide information on the judicial decision.
3. 181. The Committee takes note of this information. The Committee once again requests the Government to indicate whether trade unionist Mr Otiel Montero has initiated legal action in connection with his dismissal. The Committee reiterates its previous recommendations in which it stressed that the allegations date back to 2001 and that justice delayed is justice denied. The Committee firmly trusts once more that the judicial authorities will hand down their ruling on the dismissal of the trade unionists Mr Guido Siviria and Mr Orlando Acuña in the very near future and requests the Government to communicate the ruling as soon as it is handed down.
