Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 2006, Publicación: 96ª reunión CIT (2007)

Effective tripartite consultations. The Committee notes the Government’s brief report received in June 2006 which contains a statement indicating that no consultations have been held on the matters set out in Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Convention during the period covered by the report. The Government is consulting the social partners and other stakeholders on the establishment of consultative machinery for the purpose of implementing the Convention. The Government further indicates that it noted the matters raised by the Committee in the 2004 direct request. In this respect, the Committee draws the Government’s attention to the fact that each Member which ratifies the Convention undertakes to operate procedures which ensure effective consultations on all aspects covered by Article 5. The nature and form of such procedures are to be determined in each country in accordance with national practice after consultation with the representative organizations, where such procedures have not yet been established. The Committee hopes that the Government will be in a position to provide information in its next report on the operation of procedures established in accordance with Article 2 and on the content of consultations which have been held during the period covered by the next report on each of the matters set out in Article 5, paragraph 1, indicating their frequency and the nature of any reports or recommendations resulting from these consultations. It also hopes that the Government will be in a position to supply information on the financing of any training necessary for persons participating in the consultative procedures (Article 4, paragraph 2) and on any consultations held with the representative organizations concerning the working of the procedures (Article 6).
