Articles 2 and 5 of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultation. The Committee notes the information provided by the Government of Burkina Faso in reply to its direct request of 2016. In particular, the Committee notes the Government’s indication that the financial and technical assistance requested of the ILO was obtained in 2017. This assistance enabled the members of the Advisory Commission on International Labour Standards (CCNIT) to be trained in the following areas: ILO issues in general and the international labour standards system; tripartite consultations and Convention No. 144; the international labour standards supervisory bodies; and the fundamental labour standards in the specific areas of freedom of association and collective bargaining. This training took place during the first session of the CCNIT, from 28 February to 2 March 2017 in Ouagadougou. The Government emphasizes that the tripartite consultations of the CCNIT have been held on a regular basis in accordance with Decree No. 2015 971/PRES-TRANS/PM/MFPTSS/ MF. The Committee notes with interest the detailed information provided on the recommendations issued by the CCNIT in the course of the meetings held from 2017 to 2019.

At the first session of the CCNIT in 2018, held between 15 and 17 May 2018, the CCNIT also issued favourable opinions on the ratifications of the Safety and Health in Mines Convention, 1995 (No. 176), and the Private Employment Agencies Convention, 1997 (No. 181).
