Articles 4(2) of the Convention. Arrangements for training. In its Committee’s previous comments, the Committee requested the Government to describe any arrangements made pursuant to Article 4(2) of the Convention for the financing of any necessary training of the participants on the consultative procedures covered under the Convention. The Government reports that, with the support of the ILO, the Tripartite Committee held a capacity building training for tripartite officers, including the National Assembly, the Prime Minister’s Office, the Ministry of Education and Sport, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Justice. The Committee requests the Government to provide specific information on the nature of the arrangements made for the capacity building training for the tripartite officers referenced in the Government’s report, and the extent to which such officers are engaged in the tripartite consultation procedures contemplated under the Convention, in particular tripartite consultations within the National Tripartite Consultation Committee on Labour Relations (NTCC).

Article 5(1). Effective tripartite consultations. In its report, the Government indicates that it promotes tripartite consultation on the protection and benefit of employers and workers based on the 2013 Amendment to the Labour Law and other relevant documents. It adds that tripartite meetings are regularly conducted to discuss the implementation of the labour law, and that the draft decree on the organization of the National Labour Committee is currently being considered. Noting that the Government has not provided the specific information requested, the Committee once again requests that the Government provide updated detailed information on the specific content and the outcome of tripartite consultations held on each of the matters related to international labour standards covered by the Convention, namely: Government replies to questionnaires concerning Conference agenda items (Article 5(1)(a)); proposals to be made to the competent authorities in connection with the submission of instruments adopted by the Conference (Article 5(1)(b)); the re-examination at appropriate intervals of unratified Conventions and Recommendations to which effect has not yet been given (Article 5(1)(c)); and questions arising out of reports to be presented on the application of ratified Conventions (Article 5(1)(d)).
