Articles 2 and 5(1) of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. The Committee notes the information provided in the Government’s report in response to the Committee’s previous comments. The Government indicates that a Standing Committee for Social Dialogue has been established pursuant to Ministerial Order No. 324 of 2014, which discusses issues related to ILO activities. The Committee’s first meeting took place on 24 November 2014, during which it identified the members of the technical secretariat and addressed the need for coordination among the trade unions in selecting their representatives, as well as the need to promote cooperation between all of the Committee’s members in order to reach sound results on labour and workers’ issues. The Committee notes, however, that the Committee has not held any meetings since its initial session. The Government indicates that social dialogue is still ongoing, through a new tripartite committee set up to discuss the draft law on freedom of association currently before the House of Representatives (Majlis Al Nouwab), to ensure its conformity with international labour standards. The Government further indicates that consultations are held with representative employers’ and workers’ organizations on all matters related to international labour standards, particularly on reports prepared by the Government, on replies to the comments of this Committee and on replies to questionnaires communicated by the ILO. In this regard, the Committee recalls that Article 5(2) of the Convention calls for consultations on the matters referred to in paragraph 1 of Article 5 to be held at least once a year (see General Survey on Tripartite Consultations, 2000, paragraphs 119–120). The Committee requests the Government to indicate the manner in which effect is given to Article 5(2) of the Convention. In addition, the Committee reiterates its request that the Government provide detailed information on the content and outcome of tripartite consultations held on all matters concerning international labour standards covered by the Convention, including in relation to the questionnaires on Conference agenda items (Article 5(1)(a)); the submission of instruments adopted by the Conference to the House of Representatives (Article 5(1)(b)); the re examination at appropriate intervals of unratified Conventions and Recommendations to which effect has not yet been given (Article 5(1)(c)); questions arising out of reports to be presented on the application of ratified Conventions (Article 5(1)(d)); and the possible denunciation of ratified Conventions (Article 5(1)(e)).
