Tripartite consultations required by the Convention. The Committee notes the Government’s report received in October 2008 in reply to its direct request of 2007. The Government indicates that employment issues are generally the subject of discussions within the Labour Advisory Commission. In addition, tripartite consultation forums are being set up in the various provinces, thereby allowing social dialogue in the country to be strengthened. Owing to financial difficulties, the Government is currently not in a position to provide adequate training for the participants in consultative activities referred to by the Convention. The Committee also notes the brief information on consultation procedures relating to Mozambique’s participation at the International Labour Conference and the submission to the competent authorities of the instruments adopted by the Conference, the possibilities for ratification of Conventions and the preparation of reports on the application of ratified and unratified Conventions. With reference to its previous comments, the Committee requests the Government to provide more detailed information in its next report on the content and outcome of the consultations held on each of the matters set forth in Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Convention.
