The Committee takes note of the Government’s report.

With regard to its previous comments concerning the denial of the rights of unregistered unions to function and to collect funds, as well as the right of workers to belong to more than one trade union, although they may have more than one job (sections 11A(1) and (2)  and 11B of the Industrial Relations Ordinance (IRO)), the Committee notes that the Government’s report confines itself to referring to previously provided information.

The Committee once again requests the Government to indicate the measures taken or envisaged to amend the provisions which deny the rights of unregistered unions to function and to collect funds, and to ensure that workers who may be working in more than one occupation may join more than one trade union so as to defend their interests in their respective occupations. Noting the ongoing revision of the Labour Code, the Committee hopes that the necessary measures will be taken in the near future and requests the Government to keep it informed of developments in this respect.
