Effective tripartite consultations required by the Convention. The Committee notes the information contained in the Government’s reports received in December 2008 and November 2009. In reply to previous comments, the Government indicates that it established a Standing Tripartite Committee to ensure effective consultations between representatives of the Government, employers and workers regarding matters stipulated in the Convention. The Tripartite Committee has held eight meetings between May 2005 and December 2008 when it considered, among other things, to ratify a number of Conventions including the Labour Administration Convention, 1978 (No. 150), the Labour Relations (Public Service) Convention, 1978 (No. 151), and the Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment (Disabled Persons) Convention, 1983 (No. 159). The most recent Tripartite Committee was appointed in February 2008 for a period of three years. The Government indicates that it had 26 outstanding reports for the ILO as at 30 March 2008, and during the course of four months, the Tripartite Committee met on three occasions and completed 24 reports. The Government indicates that every effort is being made to complete the remaining two reports. The Committee asks the Government to continue to provide information on the content and outcome of the tripartite consultations held on the matters related to international labour standards listed in Article 5 of the Convention.
