Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2006, published 96th ILC session (2007)

Freedom of Association and Protection of the Right to Organise Convention, 1948 (No. 87) - Bulgaria (Ratification: 1959)

The Committee notes the comments of 10 August 2006 by the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU), which largely concern issues of law and practice pertaining to the Convention that the Committee is already examining and refer in particular to flaws in the procedure for determining the representativeness of trade unions. The Committee requests the Government to send its observations on the ICFTU’s comments.

It also requests the Government, in the context of the regular reporting cycle, to send for examination at the Committee’s next session, to be held in November-December 2007, its comments on all the questions raised in the Committee’s observation of 2005 (see 2005 observation, 76th Session).
