Tripartite consultations required by the Convention. The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in June 2012 in reply to its 2011 direct request. The Government indicates that the Icelandic ILO Committee held three meetings in 2009, two meetings in 2010 and two in the first five months of 2011. Consultations on questions concerning the items on the agenda of the Conference and questions arising out of reports to the ILO were among the Icelandic ILO Committee’s main tasks. It has also taken part in the preparation of the reports delivered by the Minister for Social Affairs to the Icelandic Parliament (Althingi) on instruments adopted by the Conference. The Committee notes that the Icelandic ILO Committee is seeking the opinion of relevant stakeholders concerning the possible ratification of the Employment Service Convention, 1948 (No. 88), and the Private Employment Agencies Convention, 1997 (No. 181). The Committee invites the Government to continue to provide information on the content and outcome of tripartite consultations held on the measures that might be taken to promote the implementation and ratification, as appropriate, of international labour standards (Article 5(1) of the Convention).
