It notes the Government’s information indicating that the National Tripartite Committee on International Standards was previously expected to be institutionalized by the end of 2009 but is now expected to be institutionalized by the end of 2010. The Government reports that it and the social partners participated in a two-day session in May 2010 on the Decent Work Country Programmes, at which strengthening tripartism and social dialogue was discussed.
