1. 14. The Committee last examined this case at its November 2011 meeting [see 362nd Report, paras 13–16]. On that occasion, the Committee had requested the Government to continue to provide information on the situation of certain members and officials of SNAPAP. The Committee was awaiting information from the Government on the outcome of the inquiry carried out by the Ministry of Health, Population and Hospital Reform in February 2011 regarding the current situation of Mr Hadj Djilani Mohamed and Mr Houari Kaddour. The Committee was also awaiting information from the Government on the outcome of the appeal lodged as part of the case concerning Mr Mourad Tchikou. Lastly, the Committee had requested the Government to provide information on the current situation of Mr Sadou Saddek following his return from sick leave and, in particular, to indicate whether he had taken up his new post.
2. 15. In a communication dated 25 May 2012, the Government indicates that the inquiry carried out by the Ministry of Health, Population and Hospital Reform has corroborated the information previously provided regarding the situation of Mr Hadj Djilani Mohamed and Mr Houari Kaddour. Regarding Mr Hadj Djilani Mohamed, the Government reiterates that he continues to occupy the post of head nurse and has lodged no complaints with the administration concerning the fine he received following an appeal lodged as part of a dispute with the leader of another trade union organization. Regarding Mr Houari Kaddour, the Government reiterates that he has made no statements since 2006 and that the administration has not been notified of any appeal against the decision to dismiss him for having abandoned his post in March 2006. As regards the case brought before the Supreme Court by Mr Mourad Tchikou, the Government indicates that the Court has yet to rule on the appeal. Lastly, as regards the situation of Mr Sadou Saddek, the Government explains that a request for information from his employer has revealed that he was on sick leave until June 2012 and that he frequently and systematically renews that sick leave.
3. 16. The Committee takes note of the latest information provided by the Government on the present case. The Committee is awaiting information on the outcome of the appeal lodged as part of the case concerning Mr Mourad Tchikou, as well as on the situation of Mr Sadou Saddek, particularly on whether he has taken up his new post following his return from sick leave.
