Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2006, publiée 96ème session CIT (2007)

The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its 2005 direct request, which read as follows:

Tripartite consultations required by the Convention. The Committee notes with interest the detailed information provided by the Government on the consultations held monthly by the “144 Committee” which lead to various recommendations such as to specify a higher age for admission to employment which was accepted by the Cabinet and registered by the ILO in September 2004. In reply to its previous report, the Committee also notes that the Government will refer to the “144 Committee” the matter concerning the ratification of the Indigenous and Tribal Peoples Convention, 1989 (No. 169), and the denunciation of the Recruiting of Indigenous Workers Convention, 1936 (No. 50) and the Penal Sanctions (Indigenous Workers) Convention, 1939 (No. 65), at the same time. The Committee also notes the recommendation made to the Minister of Labour to ratify the Labour Inspection Convention, 1947 (No. 81). The Committee requests the Government to keep providing information on the consultations held on all the matters set out in Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Convention during the period covered by the next report.
