Articles 2 and 5 of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations required by the Convention. In its 2012 observation, the Committee noted that the National Organisation of Trade Unions (NOTU) indicated that the level of tripartism was still very low, especially on issues of labour standards. The Committee notes with interest that the National Tripartite Charter on Labour Relations was signed by the Government, the Federation of Uganda Employers (FUE) and the NOTU on 23 May 2013. The Charter aims to, among other goals, strengthen the statutory bodies, such as the Labour Advisory Board and the National Tripartite Council. The Committee notes that, under the Charter, the Government is to provide mechanisms for dialogue, tripartite consultations and negotiations to enable the parties to implement the terms of the Charter. Furthermore, the Government indicates in its report that the National Taskforce on the review of the application of Conventions and reports on international labour standards has been constituted with the representation of the social partners and the line ministries. The National Tripartite Council will be established to further strengthen social dialogue between the social partners and ensure the implementation of the commitments made by the parties. The Committee invites the Government to provide in its next report information on the consultations held within the National Tripartite Council and other tripartite bodies on the matters related to international labour standards covered by Article 5(1) of the Convention.

The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.
