The Committee has noted the Government's latest report on application of the Convention. It notes that the Tripartite Consultative Committee on ILO Matters, the creation of which was discussed at a consultation of the social partners, has not yet been established and that tripartite consultations on the matters laid down in the Convention are carried out by written communications. Noting that the Government had indicated in its previous reports that this system of consultation did not appear to be very effective, the Committee requests it to indicate the measures taken or envisaged pursuant to the abovementioned consultation of the social partners. In this context, the Committee notes that the Barbados Workers' Union stresses again the need to set up a national tripartite committee as soon as possible.

Furthermore, the Committee notes that the Government's report contains no relevant information on the consultations that took place on the matters set forth in Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Convention. It wishes to draw the Government's attention to the need to supply the fullest detailed information possible on the consultations held in order to allow it to better assess how the Convention is applied in practice.

The Committee hopes that the Government will take the necessary measures to adopt an effective consultation procedure satisfactory to all parties and that it will be able to supply information to that effect in its next report as well as to supply the information required under the section of the report form relating to Article 5.
