Articles 2(1), 5(1) and 6 of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. Reports on consultations. In its previous comments, the Committee requested the Government to provide detailed updated information concerning the procedures put in place to ensure effective tripartite consultations. The Committee further requested the Government to provide updated information on the nature and outcome of tripartite consultations held during the period covered by the report on each of the matters concerning international labour standards set out in Article 5(1)(a)–(e), including information as to the frequency of such consultations and to supply copies of reports produced on the working of the procedures provided for in the Convention (Article 6). The Government reports that consultations regarding the Safety and Health in Mines Convention, 1995 (No. 176), have not yet taken place. The Government undertakes to keep the Committee informed of progress made in this regard. The Committee notes, however, that the Government does not provide information with regard to the procedures in place to ensure effective tripartite consultations concerning the measures to be taken at the national level in relation to international labour standards, as required under Article 2(1) of the Convention. Moreover, the Government does not provide copies of any reports produced on the working of the procedures provided for in the Convention (Article 6).The Committee therefore reiterates its request that the Government provide updated detailed information on the procedures established to ensure effective tripartite consultations (Article 2(1) of the Convention). The Committee also once again requests the Government to communicate concrete information on the content, outcome and frequency of tripartite consultations held during the period covered by the report on each of the matters concerning international labour standards set out in Article 5(1)(a)–(e) of the Convention, particularly in relation to: questionnaires concerning items on the agenda of the Conference (Article 5(1)(a)); the submission of instruments adopted by the Conference to the National Assembly (Article 5(1)(b)), and reports to be made on the application of ratified Conventions (Article 5(1)(d)). In addition, the Committee reiterates its request that the Government supply copies of any reports produced on the operation of the procedures provided for in the Convention (Article 6).
