Articles 2 and 5 of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. Technical assistance. The Committee has been inviting the Government since 2014 to provide information on the progress made following the assistance provided by the ILO in 2013 on matters related to tripartite consultations and social dialogue. However, the Committee notes once again that the Government has not provided the requested information on the activities and progress achieved in ensuring the holding of the effective tripartite consultations required by the Convention. The Committee also recalls that, under the terms of Article 5(2), of the Convention, tripartite consultations have to be held at appropriate intervals fixed by agreement, but at least once a year (see the General Survey on tripartite consultation, 2000, paragraphs 119 and 120). The Committee therefore once again requests the Government to provide information on the measures taken and the progress achieved with regard to matters relating to tripartite consultations and social dialogue. In particular, the Committee requests the Government to provide precise and detailed information on the frequency, content and outcome of the tripartite consultations held by the Higher Committee for Labour and Social Security on all the matters relating to international labour standards covered by Article 5(1) of the Convention, and particularly in relation to questionnaires on the items on the agenda of the Conference (Article 5(1)(a)), the submission of the instruments adopted by the Conference to the Parliament (Article 5(1)(b)), the re-examination at appropriate intervals of unratified Conventions and of Recommendations to which effect has not yet been given (Article 5(1)(c)) and the reports to be made on the application of ratified Conventions (Article 5(1)(d)).

Article 4(2). Training. The Committee notes the information provided by the Government according to which the economic crisis experienced by the country has slowed down most activities, including those relating to the training of participants in consultation procedures. The Committee once again requests the Government to describe the arrangements made for the financing of any necessary training of participants in the consultation procedures.

In the context of the global COVID-19 pandemic, the Committee recalls the guidance provided by international labour standards. It encourages the Government to engage more broadly in tripartite consultation and social dialogue, which offer a solid basis for the preparation and implementation of effective responses to the deep-rooted socio-economic repercussions of the pandemic. The Committee invites the Government to continue to provide updated information in its next report on the measures taken in this respect, in accordance with Article 4 of the Convention and Paragraphs 3 and 4 of Recommendation No. 152, including with regard to steps taken to reinforce the capacity of the tripartite constituents and strengthen mechanisms and procedures, as well as challenges and good practices identified.
