Strengthening social dialogue. With reference to its observation of 2003, the Committee notes with interest the detailed report provided by the Government in September 2005 in which it reports the establishment of the Tripartite Commission on International Relations (CTRI) (Portaria No. 447 of 19 August 2004). The Government has included the detailed reports of the three meetings held by the CTRI in which it discussed, among other subjects, the matters covered by the Convention. The Committee notes that tripartite consultations were held on the submission of instruments to the National Congress. Tripartite consultations have also been planned to discuss the denunciation of an obsolete Convention, the Inspection of Emigrants Convention, 1926 (No. 21). The Committee trusts that detailed information will continue to be provided in future reports on the progress made by the Government and the social partners in continuing to hold effective tripartite consultations on the subjects covered by the Convention (Articles 2 and 5 of the Convention).
