Article 5(1) of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. The Committee notes the detailed information provided by the Government on the consultations held during the reporting period on matters regarding international labour standards, in particular with regard to the consultations held to re-examine unratified Conventions (Article 5(1)(c)). The Government indicates that the Permanent ILO Committee has discussed the possible ratification of the Protocol of 2014 to the Forced Labour Convention, 1930, and the Domestic Workers Convention, 2011 (No. 189). The Government indicates that the recommendation from the Permanent ILO Committee was not to ratify Convention No. 189 at present. The social partners decided to recommend the ratification of the 2014 Protocol and a written recommendation in this regard will be submitted to the Minister of Employment. The Committee notes that the Permanent ILO Committee has also discussed the possible ratification of the Safety and Health in Mines Convention, 1995 (No. 176), a discussion which is still ongoing, and the social partners have already given their preliminary support for ratification. The Work in Fishing Convention, 2007 (No. 188), has also been discussed, although the Government has temporarily postponed the decision on ratification. The Committee welcomes the information provided and requests the Government to continue to provide updated information on the content and outcome of the tripartite consultations held on the matters covered by the Convention.
