The Committee notes the Government's report and recalls that its previous comments concerned:

-- the exclusion from the scope of the Labour Code of workers in certain agricultural or stock-raising enterprises (section 2(1));

-- the prohibition on more than one trade union in a single enterprise, institution or establishment (section 472);

-- the requirement that trade union officers must be Honduran and be engaged in the corresponding occupation (sections 510(a) and 541(c), respectively);

-- restrictions on the right to strike (sections 495, 537, 555, 558 and 563).

The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government to the effect that since the new President has taken office, the Minister of Labour has, as a matter of urgency, submitted to the competent authority the reform of the Labour Code now being drafted as part of the modernization and strengthening of the State.

The Committee again expresses the hope that the new Labour Code takes account of the comments that the Committee has been making for many years, and that it will be adopted in the near future.

The Committee again asks the Government to keep it informed of any developments in this respect and to provide a copy of the new Code as soon as it has been adopted.
