Seguimiento dado a las recomendaciones del Comité y del Consejo de Administración - Informe núm. 355, Noviembre 2009

Caso núm. 2439 (Camerún) - Fecha de presentación de la queja:: 20-JUL-05 - Cerrado

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

1. 25. In its previous examination of the case at its March 2008 session [see paras 37–46], the Committee had asked to be kept informed on the issue of the certificate of registration of the SNI-ENERGIE trade union and the proceedings initiated by Mr Ndzana Olongo before the courts.
2. 26. In its replies of 10 July 2008 and 12 January 2009 the Government refers to court rulings handed down by the Court of Appeal sitting in interim relief proceedings in favour of Mr Ndzana Olongo in the dispute opposing him to the current President of the Confederation of Independent Trade Unions of Cameroon (CSIC), Mr Oumarou Mougoue. The Government reiterates its dedication to the principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of trade unions. The Government invites the party concerned to notify the opposing party of the court decision and to comply with the conditions stipulated in article 8 of the Labour Code, whereby at least 20 signatures are required for the registration of the SNIENERGIE trade union.
3. 27. In communications of 2 October 2008 and 6 March 2009, Mr Ndzana Olongo indicates that, in a decision of the District Court of Yaoundé (social judgement No. 108 of 15 December 2008), registered on 2 March 2009, he was partially justified in his request, in his capacity as candidate for the election of staff delegate at the time of his dismissal by the enterprise AES Sonel, which was ordered to pay him his salary from April 2005 to April 2007 and to reinstate him in the enterprise or, failing that, to grant him compensation for moral damages.
4. 28. The Committee takes note of this information.
