Failure to submit. The Committee notes with interest that on 30 November 2022, the Government ratified the Violence and Harassment Convention, 2019 (No. 190), as well as the Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment (Disabled Persons) Convention, 1983 (No. 159). The Committee welcomes the information provided by the Government indicating that a draft report was prepared with technical assistance from the ILO Caribbean Office containing 24 instruments pending submission adopted by the Conference at 15 sessions held between 1997 and 2017. The Committee notes, however, that the report lacks information regarding the submission of the Violence and Harassment Recommendation, 2019 (No. 206). This Recommendation is associated with Convention No. 190 and also needs be submitted to the competent authority in the event of ratifying the said Convention. It further notes the Government’s indication that the report will be sent to Cabinet for approval prior to submission to Parliament. The Committee expresses the hope that the Government will take the necessary measures to complete the submission process without delay. It once more requests the Government to provide information on the submission to Parliament of the 25 instruments adopted by the Conference at 15 sessions held between 1997 and 2019 (85th, 86th, 88th, 89th, 90th, 92nd, 95th, 96th, 99th, 100th, 101st, 103rd, 104th, 106th and 108th Sessions).
