Effect given to the recommendations of the Committee and the Governing Body

1. 77. At its March 1999 meeting, the Committee had recalled with great concern the numerous and serious incompatibilities between the State Enterprise Labour Relations Act (SELRA) and the principles of freedom of association and had urged the Government to take the necessary measures in the near future to amend the legislation so as to restore fully the right to organize and to bargain collectively to state enterprise employees (see 313th Report, paras. 62-64).
2. 78. In a communication dated 29 June 1999, the Government indicates that the Senate amended the State Enterprise Labour Relations Bill and passed the revised Bill in its second and final reading on 2 April 1999. However, the House of Representatives disapproved the amended draft on 7 April 1999. Then a Joint Ad Hoc Committee, consisting of members of the House of Representatives and Senators, was set up for consideration of the Bill. The Government adds that, at present, the State Enterprise Labour Relations Bill is under consideration of the Joint Ad Hoc Committee. In a communication dated 27 October 1999, the Government indicates that the Bill, which was amended by the Joint Ad Hoc Committee, was approved by the Senate but disapproved by the House of Representatives.
3. 79. The Committee notes this information. It urges the Government to ensure that the Bill, in its final form, will be in conformity with freedom of association principles. It requests the Government to keep it informed of any developments in this regard and to provide a copy of the Bill once it has been adopted.
