Article 5 of the Convention. Tripartite consultations required by the Convention. The Committee notes the Government’s first report on the application of the Convention received in October 2009. The Government refers to the Economic and Social Council (ESC), established through a tripartite agreement in accordance with the Labour Relations Act, as being the main body for tripartite consultations. The Government indicates that the ESC’s mandate allows tripartite consultations over the issues covered by Article 5 of the Convention. The Government also indicates that amendments are being made to the Labour Relations Act to include specific provisions for the implementation of the Convention. In this connection, the ILO Office in Budapest was requested to provide assistance to support the work of the ESC. The Committee invites the Government to provide in its next report further information on the operation of the mechanism of consultation on international labour standards, including precise information on the activities of the ESC on the matters covered by the Convention. It would appreciate receiving detailed information on the content of the consultations and the recommendations formulated on each of the matters set out in Article 5(1) of the Convention.
