Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2000, publiée 89ème session CIT (2001)

The Committee notes the information sent by the Government in November 1999 and January 2000 in reply to its previous direct request. It notes that the Tripartite Consultative Labour Committee examined in March 1999 the possibility of ratifying the core Conventions which remained unratified, and that the representative employers’ and workers’ organizations continue to be consulted on questions arising from the reports to be submitted under article 22 of the ILO Constitution. The Committee renews its wish that tripartite consultation held by the Government in future will address the other questions listed under Article 5(1) of the Convention, namely: items on the agenda of the International Labour Conference ((a)), and the submission of instruments to the competent authorities ((b)). In this connection, it would like to recall that these matters involve an annual consultation similar to that in respect of the reports to be submitted to the ILO. The re-examination of unratified Conventions and of Recommendations calls for less frequent study. Moreover, in conformity with the stipulations of the report form under Article 5, the Committee requests the Government to supply any reports or recommendations made as a result of the consultations. Noting the Government’s reply in respect of the implementation of Article 6, the Committee wishes to indicate that if no annual report is issued on the procedures of consultation, the Government must give particulars of the consultations that have taken place with the representative organizations on this matter. Finally, the Committee notes the request for technical assistance submitted by the Government regarding training for participants in consultation procedures.
