Effective tripartite consultations required by the Convention. Further to its previous observations, the Committee notes the report for the period ending in May 2009, in which the Government reports on the activities of the National Labour Council, including tripartite consultations as required by the Convention. The Committee further notes the registration of ratification of the Merchant Shipping (Minimum Standards) Convention, 1976 (No. 147), and its Protocol of 1996 in December 2007. In addition, in January 2009, the ratifications were registered of the Employment Service Convention, 1948 (No. 88), and of the Employment Policy Convention, 1964 (No. 122). The Committee also notes the comments of the Confederation of Trade Unions of Albania (CTUA), which again states that the National Council of Labour has not reviewed the Government’s reports with workers’ organizations as required by the Convention. CTUA also brought forward that the applicability of ratified Conventions had not been analysed. The Committee reiterates its interest in receiving precise information on the effective consultations held during the period covered by the next report on all matters related to international labour standards enumerated in Article 5(1) of the Convention.
