Article 2 of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. The Committee notes the Government’s brief report received in August 2011. The Government reiterates that the National Labour Board reviews and formulates recommendations on the Antigua and Barbuda Labour Code and also discusses matters related to the ratification of Conventions. The Government further states that recent recommendations for amendments were submitted to the Cabinet of Antigua and Barbuda. It also indicates that tripartite consultations are active and regularly conducted between workers’ and employers’ organizations and government, on all provisions of the Labour Code. The Committee requests the Government to provide detailed information on the activities of the National Labour Board on matters regarding international labour standards covered by the Convention.

Article 5(1)(b). Tripartite consultations required by the Convention. Submission to the Parliament of Antigua and Barbuda. The Government indicates in its report that it acknowledges the comments made by the Committee in 2009. However, it indicates that the information requested was not available for this reporting period. The Committee once again invites the Government to report on the effective consultations held with respect to proposals made to the Parliament of Antigua and Barbuda in connection with the submission of the instruments adopted by the Conference, including indications of the date on which the instruments were submitted to Parliament.

Article 5(1)(c). Examination of unratified Conventions and Recommendations. The Committee notes with interest that the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006, was ratified on 18 August 2011. The Committee recalls its previous comments and invites the Government to re-examine some unratified Conventions with its social partners, in particular the Labour Inspection (Agriculture) Convention, 1969 (No. 129), which is deemed a governance Convention; the Holidays with Pay Convention (Revised), 1970 (No. 132), which revises the Weekly Rest (Industry) Convention, 1921 (No. 14), and the Holidays with Pay (Agriculture) Convention, 1952 (No. 101), to which Antigua and Barbuda is a party; and the Seafarers’ Identity Documents Convention (Revised), 2003 (No. 185), which revises the Seafarers’ Identity Documents Convention, 1958 (No. 108), that has also been ratified by Antigua and Barbuda.
