The Committee notes the report received in June 2001 indicating that there is a very advanced culture of tripartism in the Dominican Republic and that all decisions are taken and examined by the three sectors. The Committee also notes Decree No. 47-99, of 17 February 1999, establishing the Labour Advisory Council. The Committee recalls the importance of first reports in enabling it to undertake its first evaluation of the application of ratified Conventions. The Committee therefore requests the Government to make a special effort when preparing its next report and to provide, in respect of Articles 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 of the Convention, all the information required by the report form.
