The Committee notes that it has not yet received the Government’s report or its reply to the comments made by the Confederation of Colombian Workers (CTC) on the denial of the right to collective bargaining for public employees as a result of a decision by the Supreme Court in June 2001. The Committee requests the Government to send its detailed report based on the corresponding report form approved by the Governing Body, together with the relevant legislation.

The Committee notes the communication dated 29 August 2003 of the World Confederation of Labour (WCL) on the application of the Convention concerning the same issue raised by the CTC. The Committee notes that this issue is addressed in its observation on the application of Convention No. 98.

The Committee once again reiterates that, by virtue of Article 1 of the Convention, employees in the public service should have the right to collective bargaining, although special modalities of application may be fixed. The Committee once again requests the Government to adopt measures to bring the legislation into full conformity with the provisions of the Convention.
