The Committee regrets to note that for the fourth year in succession it has not received the first report from the Government. The Committee nevertheless notes the Constitution of 13 March 1992 and the Labour Code of July 1993.

The Committee notes with interest that the Constitution of 1992 grants freedom of association and the right to organize peacefully (section 28) and provides for trade union activity and the right to strike (section 35). The Committee also notes with interest that the Labour Code of 1993 guarantees employers and workers the right to freedom of association, to trade union activity (sections 7 and 264) and the right to strike and to organize a lockout (section 8).

The Committee moreover is addressing a request directly to the Government for clarification on certain points in respect of the trade union rights of public servants and minors, the right of trade union associations to elect their representatives in full freedom and to organize their administration and activities and to formulate their programme without interference from the public authorities.

[The Government is asked to report in detail in 1999.]
