The Committee notes the Government’s report received by the Office on 30 September 2011, as well as the joint comments of the representative employers’ and workers’ organizations attached thereto (the Solomon Islands Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SICCI), the Solomon Islands Chinese Association (SICA), the Solomon Islands Indigenous Business Association (SIIBA), the Solomon Islands Women in Business Association (SIWIBA), the Association of Solomon Islands Manufacturers (ASIM), the Solomon Forestry Association (SFA), the Solomon Islands Council of Trade Unions (SICTU), the Solomon Islands Public Employees’ Union (SIPEU), the Solomon Islands National Union of Workers (SINUW) and the Solomon Islands National Teachers’ Association (SINTA)). According to the representative employers’ and workers’ organizations, there is a need for capacity building of the Labour Department and the social partners on the content and application of international labour standards. The Committee notes in this regard that the Government expressed its appreciation for the technical assistance provided by the Office for the preparation of article 22 reports and the facilitation of the discussion of the reports with the social partners. The Committee invites the Government to take formal steps so as to avail itself of further ILO technical assistance aimed at capacity building in the area of labour inspection and to keep the Office informed of developments in this regard.

The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.
