Tripartite consultations required by the Convention. The Committee notes the Government’s report received in October 2010 including detailed replies to its 2009 observation. The Committee notes that tripartite consultations are held within the auspices of the National Advisory Committee on Labour (NACOLA). The ministry also holds management meetings every week wherein international labour standards are discussed including possible ratification of Conventions. Furthermore, the ministry intends to take into consideration the issues raised by employer members in NACOLA when considering ratification of Conventions. The Committee also notes that the ratification of the Safety and Health in Mines Convention, 1995 (No. 176), is under consideration by the newly established and inaugurated National Advisory Council on Occupational Health and Safety. In-depth discussions with the Ministry of Public Service are planned in relation to the Collective Bargaining Convention, 1981 (No. 154). The Committee invites the Government to continue to supply information on the outcome of and the follow-up to tripartite consultations held in NACOLA and other mechanisms on all matters related to international labour standards listed in Article 5(1) of the Convention.
