Seguimiento dado a las recomendaciones del Comité y del Consejo de Administración - Informe núm. 334, Junio 2004

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

1. 22. The Committee last examined this case at its meeting in November 2003, where it reiterated its hope that the regulation concerning trade union representativeness would be adopted rapidly and that a vote concerning the representativeness of PROMYANA and the Association of Democratic Syndicates (ADS) could take place rapidly on that basis. The Committee also requested the Government to provide it with a copy of the regulation in question [see 332nd Report, para. 24].
2. 23. In a communication of 6 February 2004, the Government indicates that on 11 July 2003, the Council of Ministers adopted an Ordinance on representativeness criteria for workers’ and employers’ organizations (Ordinance No. 64/18, which entered into force on 21 October 2003) a copy of which is attached to its communication. The procedure provided for in the Ordinance was carried out at the end of 2003: eight organizations of workers and employers have submitted the documents required under the new procedure, but neither PROMYANA nor the ADS are among them. The documents sent by the participating organizations will be analysed and processed by the Ministry and referred to the Council of Ministers for decision. The Committee will be informed in due course of the final result of the procedure.
3. 24. The Committee notes this information and requests the Government to keep it informed of developments. The text of Ordinance No. 64/18 is being brought to the attention of the Committee of Experts for the Application of Conventions and Recommendations.
