Tripartite consultations required under the Convention. In reply to the 2010 observation, the Government states in its report received in September 2011 that it regrets not having any specific information on the tripartite consultations held regarding questionnaires concerning items on the agenda of the 100th Session of the Conference (June 2011). The Government also states that many of the tripartite meetings during the 2009–10 period focused on the necessary steps for formulating a Labour Code. The Committee notes that the ILO subregional team assisted the Government in drafting a Labour Code. In May 2011, the National Tripartite Committee met to discuss the HIV component of the Decent Work Country Programme with the participation of ILO team specialists. The Committee reiterates the importance of holding tripartite consultations on international labour standards as required by the Convention. It asks the Government to provide in its next report the information on the tripartite consultations held on questionnaires concerning items of the agenda of the Conference and on the preparation of reports on the application of ratified Conventions (Article 5(1)(a) and (d)). The Committee also invites the Government to include information on the tripartite consultations held, especially within the National Tripartite Committee on International Labour Standards. It further requests the Government to provide examples of any reports or recommendations made as a result of the consultations held under the established procedures.
