Suites données aux recommandations du comité et du Conseil d’administration - Rapport No. 318, Novembre 1999

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

1. 63. The Committee last examined this case, which concerns dismissals in the customs sector following a strike in May 1993, at its March 1999 meeting (see 313th Report, paras. 39-42). The Committee recalls that on that occasion, fully aware of the difficulty of reinstating the workers who were dismissed almost six years ago, it urged the Government to take all the necessary measures to ensure that the parties to the dispute reach an agreement on full compensation for the workers dismissed, if reinstatement was not possible.
2. 64. In a communication dated 6 August 1999, the Government points out that the services of the General Directorate of Labour Relations and the Directorate of Conciliation and Collective Bargaining are available to help workers to resolve the dispute.
3. 65. The Committee takes note of this information. The Committee again requests the Government to try to ensure that the parties concerned reach an agreement -- possibly with the assistance of these administrative bodies -- on full compensation for the workers dismissed, if reinstatement is not possible.
