The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government concerning Article 4, paragraph 2, and Article 6 of the Convention. It requests the Government to supply information on any further developments respecting the practical implementation of these two provisions.

The Committee also notes the comments made on the Government's previous report by the Ecuador Central of Working Class Organisations, which indicates in particular, that the Government cannot free itself from the obligation to hold the consultations required under Article 5, paragraph 1(c), by invoking the "economic circumstances of the Ministry and the country". The information supplied by the Government in its last report, in reply to the comments of the trade union, show that, for the same reasons, these consultations have still not taken place.

The Committee points out that the above provision is intended to establish a continuous process of re-examination of non-ratified Conventions and Recommendations at least once a year (Article 5, paragraph 2). According to a programme established over a certain period of time, this therefore involves the possibility of re-examining systematically, in the light of the changes that have occurred in national legislation and practice, the instruments that may be of interest for the country. The Committee trusts that the "economic circumstances" invoked by the Government will not in future prevent the consultations provided for in the Convention.

The Committee requests the Government to supply full and detailed information on the consultations that take place during the period covered by the next report on each of the matters set out in Article 5, paragraph 1, and, in particular, with regard to point (c) of that provision.
