Article 3(2) of the Convention. Representation on an equal footing. The Committee notes the Government’s first report on the application of the Convention. The Government indicates that representatives are chosen freely by their organizations and adds that the tripartite commission is composed of ten members representing occupational unions (five titular members and five substitute members) and four members representing employers (two titular members and two substitute members). The Committee requests the Government to indicate the manner in which representation of the interests of employers and of workers is ensured so that their opinions have equal weight in the tripartite commission.

Articles 2 and 5(1)(c) and (e). Effective tripartite consultations. Re examination of unratified Conventions. Denunciations. The Committee notes that consultations are held in the context of the tripartite commission established under the terms of the Convention, which held its first meeting on 7 April 2015. The Government also reports written communications with the social partners and the consultations held on the matters covered by the Convention. With regard to the re-examination of unratified Conventions, the Government indicates that, despite the fact that the Freedom of Association and Protection of the Right to Organise Convention, 1948 (No. 87), has not been ratified, almost all of its provisions have been introduced into the Labour Code. The Committee recalls that, in a direct request made in 2013 concerning the Night Work (Women) Convention, 1919 (No. 4), it noted a statement by the Government indicating that the denunciation of Convention No. 4 was under consideration and that the process for the ratification of the Night Work Convention, 1990 (No. 171), would be initiated once national law and practice had been harmonized with the provisions of that Convention. In the direct requests made in 2012 concerning the Minimum Wage-Fixing Machinery Convention, 1928 (No. 26), and the Minimum Wage Fixing Machinery (Agriculture) Convention, 1951 (No. 99), the Committee referred to the ratification of the Minimum Wage Fixing Convention, 1970 (No. 131), and recalled the possibility of denouncing Conventions Nos 26 and 99. The Committee requests the Government to provide detailed information on the matters covered and the outcome of the consultations held on all the items relating to international labour standards covered by the Convention, including the consultations on the re-examination of Convention No. 87, which is a fundamental Convention, and on other Conventions, such as Convention No. 171. Please also indicate whether tripartite consultations have been held on the possibility of denouncing Conventions Nos 26 and 99.
