Article 5 of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. The Government indicates that the most representative workers’ and employers’ organizations, among others, are consulted in order to examine and strengthen labour regulations and legislation. It explains that social dialogue is carried out on three levels, that is national, economic sector and enterprise levels. With regard to social dialogue at national level, the Government indicates that 19 tripartite meetings have been held since 1990, as well as 14 bipartite meetings involving the Government and one of the social partners. At the tripartite meetings, several economic and social issues were addressed. The Government refers to the stability and development agreement for enterprises in the private sector signed on 5 June 2016 between the General Union of Algerian Workers (UGTA) and the employers’ associations and organizations. The Committee notes that once again the Government’s report contains no reply to its previous comments in which the Government was invited to provide precise information on the tripartite consultations held on the matters relating to international labour standards set out in Article 5(1) of the Convention. Recalling that the Convention sets out primarily tripartite consultations aimed at promoting the implementation of international labour standards, the Committee once again asks the Government to provide precise information on the content and outcome of tripartite consultations held on all matters concerning international labour standards covered by the Convention and other matters concerning the activities of the ILO, particularly relating to the questionnaires on the Conference agenda items (Article 5(1)(a)); the submission of instruments adopted by the Conference to Parliament (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)); and reports to be presented on the application of ratified Conventions (Article 5(1)(d)).
