Consultations required by the Convention. The Committee notes the Government’s first report on the application of the Convention provided in May 2009. The Committee notes with interest that consultations required under the Convention are conducted in the context of the National Tripartite Committee which was established in June 2008 following the conclusion of a Memorandum of Understanding among the social partners for the implementation of the Convention. The Committee invites the Government to provide detailed information in its next report on the content and outcome of the tripartite consultations held on each of the matters relating to international labour standards covered by Article 5(1) of the Convention, including information as to the frequency of such consultations and the nature of any reports or recommendations made as a result of the consultations.

Representatives of employers and workers. The Committee asks the Government to provide further information on the manner in which it ensures that the representatives of the Liberia Labour Congress and the Liberia Chamber of Commerce are freely chosen by their representative organizations, and how it ensures that employers and workers are represented on an equal footing on the National Tripartite Committee.

Financing of training. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that a series of consultations have been held on the capacity-building needs of social partners. The Government indicates that, as a newly established body, the National Tripartite Committee is in dire need of training to improve the skills of its members to perform to standard. The Committee notes that the ILO contributed to the popular convention held in May 2008 to merge the original labour centres in Liberia. The Committee hopes that the Government will report on the arrangements made, possibly with ILO assistance, for the financing of any necessary training of participants in the consultation procedures on international labour standards covered by the Convention (Article 4(2)).
