The Committee notes the Government's report on the application of the Convention, which merely refers to information supplied earlier.

The Committee feels that it is nevertheless bound to stress the importance it attaches to monitoring application of the Convention, particularly the provisions of Article 5, paragraph 1. Recalling that under paragraph 2 of this Article consultations must take place at least once a year, the Committee notes that no new information has been supplied since the report dated 2 November 1988 which indicated, amongst other things, that tripartite consultations were to be held on the question of preparing an annual report as required by Article 6 of the Convention.

Accordingly, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate the results of the above consultations on this matter and provide the information required on consultations held during the period covered by the report on each of the questions referred to in Article 5, paragraph 1, including information on the frequency of such consultations. Lastly, please indicate the nature of any reports or recommendations resulting from the consultations.
