Tripartite consultations required by the Convention. The Committee notes the Government’s first report on the application of the Convention received in November 2012. The Government indicates that tripartism is deeply ingrained in Singapore. It adds that procedures for ensuring effective tripartite consultations were determined through tripartite discussions and collaborations over the decades, and have evolved over time. The Government further indicates that, for matters set out in Article 5(1) of the Convention, the social partners are consulted as and when required on the application of ratified Conventions, annual reports concerning unratified fundamental Conventions, and on other matters. It also indicates that the frequency of the tripartite consultations depends on the number and complexity of the subjects calling for consultation. The Committee invites the Government to provide in its next report information on the content and outcome of the consultations held with the social partners on the matters concerning international labour standards covered by Article 5(1) of the Convention, including consultations on replies to questionnaires concerning items on the agenda of the Conference and proposed texts to be discussed by the Conference (Article 5(1)(a)), and consultations on the re-examination of unratified fundamental Conventions Nos 87, 105 and 111; and a governance Convention (the Employment Policy Convention, 1964 (No. 122)) (Article 5(1)(c)).
