Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1990, published 77th ILC session (1990)

The Committee takes note of the information contained in the first report. It requests the Government to provide with its next report the list of laws, regulations and other texts that give effect to the provisions of the Convention (as required by point I of the report form) and additional information on the following points:

Article 5, paragraph 2 of the Convention. Please indicate the measures taken at the regional and local levels and in different sectors of economic activity to ensure, within the system of labour administration, consultation, co-operation and negotiation between the public authorities and the organisations of employers and workers.

Article 7. Please indicate whether the system of labour administration covers the workers referred to in paragraphs (a), (c) and (d) of this Article of the Convention. If it does not, please state whether the Government considers that national conditions require the extension, by gradual extension, of the functions of the labour administration system to include them, and indicate the measures taken to this end.

Article 9. Please provide detailed information on the activities of parastatal agencies and on the means available to the Ministry of Labour and Social Security to ensure that these agencies and the regional and local agencies referred to in this Article are operating in accordance with national laws and regulations and are adhering to the objectives assigned to them.

The Committee also asks the Government to provide information, in its future reports, on any progress made in decentralising the system of labour administration.
