Tripartite consultations required by the Convention. Training. The Committee notes the communication of the General Confederation of Enterprises of Côte d’Ivoire (CGECI), which was forwarded to the Government in January 2011. It also notes the Government’s replies to the 2009 observation, which were received in June 2011, and which include the report of the Tripartite Committee on ILO Matters. During the meeting of 20 December 2010, the Tripartite Committee discussed issues related to Article 5 of the Convention and also discussed the updating of its list of members. The representative of a workers’ organization expressed the hope that all the members of the Committee would receive training so that they could discharge their duties appropriately. The CGECI expressed the hope that the Committee would operate on a regular basis, which the Government also confirmed in its report. The Committee invites the Government to provide detailed information on the “effective consultations” held during the period covered by the next report. It would welcome examining precise and detailed information on the consultations held on each of the issues set out in Article 5(1) of the Convention. It invites the Government to provide information on the arrangements made, possibly with ILO assistance, for the financing of any necessary training of participants in the consultation procedures on international labour standards required by the Convention (Article 4(2)).

Submission to the National Assembly of the instruments adopted by the Conference. In its communication, the CGECI indicates that it has not been informed or consulted concerning the submission to the National Assembly of the instruments adopted by the International Labour Conference. The Government indicates that the process of submission to the National Assembly of the instruments adopted by the Conference was initiated in November 2009. The Government adds that the instruments concerned were the subject of tripartite consultations. The Committee hopes that the process of the submission to the National Assembly of the instruments adopted by the Conference between 1996 and 2011 will soon be completed and that the Government will provide precise and detailed information on the proposals submitted to the National Assembly, as required by Article 5(1)(b) of the Convention.
