Tripartite consultations required by the Convention. The Committee notes the succinct reply provided by the Government in December 2008 to its 2006 direct request. The Government indicates that Namibia was not in a position to ratify Convention No. 187 and that the ratification of Convention No. 155 could be considered once a national policy on occupational health and safety is in place. The Committee invites the Government to provide in its next report full particulars on the content of the consultations held in the Labour Advisory Council on all the matters related to international labour standards listed in Article 5(1) of the Convention.
