The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its 2007 observation which read as follows:

Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Convention. Tripartite consultations required by the Convention. The Government stated in a brief report received in November 2007 that it has prepared a note on Conventions to ratify or denunciate. This note has been transmitted to the Burundi Employers Association (AEB) and the Trade Union Confederation of Burundi (COSYBU). The result of these consultations will be communicated to the ILO. Referring to its 2006 observation, the Committee trusts that the Government will be able to provide detailed information on the content and results of tripartite consultations held during the period covered by the report, on questions concerning international labour standards, and in particular on the reports to be made to the ILO as well as the re-examination of unratified Conventions and of Recommendations (Article 5(1)(c) and (d)).

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the very near future.
