Non-payment of social security contributions by the company Intercontinental de Aviación. The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its report in reply to the observations made in 2003 by the Colombian Association of Civil Pilots (ACDAC) concerning the non-payment of social security contributions by the company Intercontinental de Aviación in relation to its employees. It notes, in this respect, that an inspection of the above company carried out in July 2004 ascertained the failure to pay social security contributions for the period 1998 to 2004. The Government adds that the company has since been closed by order of the Civil Aviation Administrative Department and that the retroactive payment has been ordered of the sums due in respect of contributions to the global social security scheme. The Committee notes this information and requests the Government to continue to keep it informed of the outcome of this matter and, in particular, of the situation of the workers of the above company in relation to health insurance for both the period prior to the closure of the company and the period since then. The Committee also takes the opportunity to request the Government to indicate the measures that have already been taken or are envisaged to ensure greater compliance in future with the obligations deriving from the Convention and to prevent such clear cases of non-compliance persisting over such long periods.

The Committee is also raising other matters in a request addressed directly to the Government.
