The Government indicates in its report that the representatives of the employers and workers on the Consultative Committee on the ratification of ILO Conventions are appointed in consultation with the most representative workers' and employers' organisations. Please state whether these are simple consultations which are not binding on the Ministry or consultations that respect the freedom of choice required by this provision of the Convention.

Article 4, paragraphs 1 and 2. Please describe the manner in which administrative support is provided for the procedures covered by the Convention and any other arrangements for the financing of any necessary training of participants in consultative procedures.
