Previous comment

Articles 3, 7, 12 and 16 of the Convention. Functioning of the labour inspection system. The Committee notes that in reply to its previous comments, reflecting the joint observations of the representative employers’ and workers’ organizations that there was a need for capacity building of the Labour Department, the Government indicates that it will in due time consider measures for the implementation of capacity building in the area of labour inspection. The Committee refers to the discussion held during the 110th Session of the International Labour Conference, by the Conference Committee on the Application of Standards in 2022 concerning the implementation of the Worst Forms of Child Labour Convention, 1999 (No. 182), by the Solomon Islands. Among its conclusions, the Conference Committee on the Application of Standards urged the Government, in consultation with the social partners, to strengthen the capacity of law enforcement agencies and the labour inspectorate to address the worst forms of child labour and to promote their effective cooperation. The Committee therefore urges the Government to take the necessary measures to build the capacities of the labour inspection system, in light of the previous joint observations made by the social partners and the 2022 conclusions of the Conference Committee on the Application of Standards. The Committee recalls that the Government can avail itself of the technical assistance of the ILO in this regard.

The Committee is raising other matters in a request addressed directly to the Government.

[The Government is asked to reply in full to the present comments in 2024.]
