Effective tripartite consultations. The Committee notes the Government's detailed report received in August 2013 which includes a copy of the report of the Permanent ILO Committee meeting held in May 2013. It notes that in this reporting period the Permanent ILO Committee discussed matters related to international labour standards, such as the possible ratification of the Safety and Health in Mines Convention, 1995 (No. 176). The Government indicates in this regard that discussions are still ongoing. Members of the Committee were also consulted on the replies provided under articles 19 and 22 of the ILO Constitution and their comments were included in the final report. Moreover, the Government adds that the Permanent ILO Committee also discussed issues that entail an ILO perspective, such as cooperation between the ILO and the Danish and Greenlandic Governments on matters concerning ratified Conventions and their applicability to Greenland and on the ILO aspects in relation to large-scale mining projects. In this regard, the Committee refers to its 2013 direct request on the Indigenous and Tribal Peoples Convention, 1989 (No. 169). The Committee invites the Government to continue to provide information on the content and outcome of the consultations held on the matters covered by the Convention, including consultations to re-examine the prospects of ratification of unratified Conventions (Article 5(1)(c)).
