Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2002, publiée 91ème session CIT (2003)

1. The Committee notes the Government’s report covering the period ending June 2000. In reply to the direct request of 2000, the Government indicates that regular consultations are held with the most representative organizations of employers and workers in the framework of tripartite dialogue and negotiations, and it refers by way of illustration to the sessions of the National Economic and Social Council and the broad national conferences. Furthermore, the Government once again indicates that it envisages the long-term establishment of a tripartite body specifically entrusted with matters relating to international labour standards. The Committee trusts that the Government’s report will indicate that real progress has been achieved in this respect and encourages the Government to consult the representative organizations, in accordance with Article 2, paragraph 2, of the Convention, on the nature and form of the consultation procedures to be operated within this tripartite body. The Committee therefore hopes that in future the Government will be able to provide full and detailed information in reply to each of the questions raised in the report form under Articles 2, 3, 4 and 6 of the Convention.

2. With regard to the application of Article 5, the Committee notes the brief indication that consultations are held in the framework of tripartite dialogue on all the matters set out in paragraph 1. It requests the Government to provide detailed information on the consultations held during the period covered by the next report, including particulars of the frequency of these consultations, with an indication of the nature of any reports or recommendations made as a result.
