Article 5, paragraph 2, of the Convention. The Committee notes the Superior Labour Council, a tripartite body set up under the Ministry of Labour, which appears to guarantee, at the national level, the consultations, cooperation and negotiations laid down in this Article of the Convention. It would be grateful if the Government would state how, to the extent compatible with national law and practice, arrangements are made for consultation, cooperation and negotiation at the national, regional and local levels as well as at the level of the different sectors of economic activity.

Article 7. The Committee notes the information to the effect that the functions of the system of labour administration have not been extended to the categories of workers referred to in paragraphs (a), (c) and (d) of this Article.

Article 9. The Committee notes the management and coordination activities of the labour and social security sector for which the Ministry of Labour and Social Security is responsible, and which enable it to ascertain whether para-statal agencies are operating in accordance with national laws and regulations and are adhering to the objectives assigned to them.
