Seguimiento dado a las recomendaciones del Comité y del Consejo de Administración - Informe núm. 348, Noviembre 2007

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

1. 50. The Committee last examined this case at its meeting in November 2006 [see 343rd Report, paras 339–363]. On that occasion the Committee requested the Government to rapidly take legislative measures, in consultation with the social partners, to ensure that academic and part-time support staff in colleges of applied arts and technology in Ontario fully enjoy the rights to organize and to bargain collectively, as any other workers.
2. 51. The Committee notes the communication of the Government dated 26 April 2007, according to which the Minister and Deputy Minister of the Government of Ontario have met with representatives of the Ontario Public Service Employees Union (OPSEU) and the Organization of Part-Time and Sessional Employees of Colleges and Applied Arts and Technology (OPSECAAT) and are reviewing the issues raised by both parties.
3. 52. The Committee trusts that, during the review of issues between the Minister and the relevant social partners, the question of ensuring that academic and part-time support staff in colleges of applied arts and technology in Ontario fully enjoy the rights to organize and to bargain collectively will be fully examined and requests the Government to keep it informed of any legislative measures taken in this respect.
