Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2008, Publicación: 98ª reunión CIT (2009)

Tripartite consultations required by the Convention. The Committee notes the information contained in a communication received in May 2008 indicating that the Government has been encouraging the social partners to set up a tripartite committee for the purpose of strengthening social dialogue. In September 2007, the social partners concluded a Memorandum of Understanding to constitute a National Tripartite Committee. The establishment of the National Tripartite Committee could not progress due to the merger process of the unions, however the process will resume after June 2008. The Committee recalls the importance of first reports in enabling it to undertake its examination of the application of ratified Conventions. It requests the Government to make a special effort when preparing its report on the application of Convention No. 144 and to provide, in respect of each provision of the Convention, all the information required by the report form. It would therefore appreciate receiving details of the consultations held by the National Tripartite Committee on the matters set out in Article 5, paragraph 1, including the nature of the recommendations made as a result of the consultations.
