The Committee notes the information provided by the Government indicating that the labour administration system comprises a central administration responsible for the planning, organization, direction and control of the national labour policy, and a territorial and local administration charged with the executive function of the policy.

Article 5. Consultation, cooperation and negotiations between the public authorities and organizations of employers and workers. The Committee notes the Government’s indications that the labour administration system puts into effect the principle of tripartism and concertation so that the social partners are involved in the activities of all institutions of social dialogue at national, regional and local levels. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide details on the consultations, cooperation and negotiations that take place between public authorities and the most representatives organizations of employers and workers, by communicating to the Office any relevant document or report in this regard.

The Committee notes the information provided by the Government indicating that the labour directorate, the national employment promotion agency and the High Council for employment are the competent bodies for labour administration in charge of the preparation, coordination, application and evaluation of the national employment policy.

The Committee requests the Government to provide details on the activities of these bodies, as well as on the manner in which such activities are being coordinated and evaluated, and to communicate a copy of any relevant document or report.

If this is not the case, please indicate, whether the national conditions would require the progressive extension of the functions of labour administration in order to include them, and on the measures taken or envisaged to this end.
