The Commmittee notes the Government's report. It regrets to note the Government's indications that the representative organizations of employers and of workers have not, with one exception, responded to its requests for consultation on the matters covered by the Convention. For the Government, tripartism implies the responsibility of the organizations of workers and of employers and, in its opinion, these organizations do not have a clear concept of their role with relation to international standards and the activities and procedures of the ILO.

The Committee wishes to recall that in accordance with Article 2 of the Convention, each Government which has ratified the Convention undertakes to operate procedures which ensure effective consultations with respect to the matters concerning the activities of the International Labour Organization set out in Article 5, paragraph 1, between representatives of the Government, of employers and of workers.

The Committee also recalls that, in its report adopted in November 1990, the Commission of Inquiry appointed under article 26 of the ILO Constitution considered that "the Government should establish and apply as soon as possible procedures ensuring effective consultation" in the field of international labour standards and that "before establishing such procedures, the Government should consult the representative workers' and employers' organizations as required by the Convention".

The Committee therefore requests the Government to supply information in its next report on the measures which have been taken to establish effective consultation procedures, and to apply these procedures, particularly with regard to the matters set out in Article 5, paragraph 1 of the Convention.

Finally, the Committee requests the Government to describe all the arrangements which have been made for the financing of any necessary training of participants in consultation procedures, in accordance with Article 4, paragraph 2, and notes in this respect the interest expressed in ILO technical cooperation.
