Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1997, Publicación: 86ª reunión CIT (1998)

1. The Committee notes the Government's brief report on the period ending in June 1997 and observes that it contains no information in reply to its previous direct request. It again asks the Government to provide full and detailed information in its next report on the consultations held in the Labour Advisory Board on the subjects listed in Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Convention.

2. Noting the statement that, due to the fact that the employers' and workers' organizations received the Government's report very late, any comments from them will be forwarded later, the Committee trusts that the organizations cited were consulted before the report was drafted, in accordance with the provisions of Article 5, parargraph 1(d).

3. Lastly, with reference to its previous direct request, the Committee notes that the Government has still supplied no answer to the question raised by the Suriname Trade and Industry Association (VSB) concerning the advisability of informing the ILO of the debate aroused by the draft Decree concerning the concept of representativeness in the Labour Advisory Board. Please state to what extent the draft Decree concerns the representativeness of the members of the sub-committee for the ILO, and provide a copy of the text if it has been adopted.
