Articles 4 and 5 of the Convention. In its previous comments, the Committee had requested the Government to take the necessary measures in order to grant civil servants and their organizations protection against anti-union discrimination and interference and had requested the Government to provide information on cases concerning anti-union discrimination (especially with respect to procedures and sanctions imposed).

The Committee notes the information contained in the Government’s report that there are no cases concerning anti-union discrimination. It further notes the Government’s indication that every effort will be made to grant civil servants and their organizations sufficient protection against anti-union discrimination and interference. The Committee requests the Government to take the necessary measures in order to grant civil servants and their organizations sufficient legal protection against anti-union discrimination and interference, and requests the Government to provide information on cases concerning anti-union discrimination (especially with respect to the procedures and sanctions imposed).
