Article 5 of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. The Committee notes with interest the information provided by the Government regarding the tripartite consultations held within the National ILO Council (NILO Council) between 2019 and 2021. In particular, the Government indicates that, following tripartite consultations with respect to the Domestic Workers Convention, 2011 (No. 189) prior to its submission to the Hungarian Parliament, it was decided not to include the instrument in the list of conventions proposed for ratification. The Government indicates that a tripartite working group (selected from among members of the NILO Council) is responsible for the re-examination of non-ratified Conventions and Recommendations to which effect has not yet been given. The tripartite working group discussed the possible ratification of the Workers with Family Responsibilities Convention, 1981 (No. 156). However, the Government reports that it was decided not to ratify Convention No. 156 while the process of national transposition of the EU Directive 2010/18/EU implementing the revised Framework Agreement on parental leave is still ongoing. The Government adds that tripartite consultations were also held with respect to reports on non-ratified Conventions, as well as on reports on ratified Conventions prepared in accordance with articles 19 and 22 of the ILO Constitution. The Government indicates that, on 18 December 2019, a conference on the future of work was held in Budapest, which was attended by representatives of workers’ and employers’ organizations. Lastly, the Committee notes the Government’s indication that public funds were provided to support the training of the members of the NILO Council. The Committee requests the Government to continue to provide detailed updated information on the tripartite consultations held with regard to all matters concerning international labour standards covered by the Convention, including with respect to Conventions identified for possible ratification.
