The Committee notes with concern that the Government’s report has not been received. The Committee also notes that the Government had been requested to provide information to the Committee on the Application of Standards at the 106th Session of the International Labour Conference for failure to supply reports and information on the application of ratified Conventions.

The Committee notes the observations of the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) received on 1 September 2017, which contain allegations of arrests of several leaders of the Gambian National Transport Control Association (GNTCA), the death of Mr Sheriff Diba, one of the arrested leaders, while in detention, and the ban imposed on the activities of the GNTCA. The Committee expresses concern at the gravity of these allegations and requests the Government to provide its comments thereon.
