Article 5(1) of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. The Government, in reply to the Committee’s previous comments, indicates that a draft Order on the creation of a tripartite advisory committee on international labour standards is being examined by the tripartite constituents, with a view to its adoption and the appointment of its members. It adds that meetings are always organized by the Ministry of Labour to examine the matters relating to international labour standards covered by Article 5 of the Convention, as well as any issues relating to labour in particular and to society in general. For example, the Government refers to the significant involvement of trade union organizations in Labour Day celebrations and the regular convening of the Labour Advisory Committee. It indicates that as soon as the tripartite advisory committee on international labour standards has been established, which is scheduled for 2018, the instruments to be submitted to the competent authority will be presented to the committee before being transmitted to the Government and then to the National Assembly. The Government indicates that it may avail itself of ILO technical support to ensure that the committee is operational. The Committee notes that the social partners are contacted by official letters so that they may comment on the Committee’s comments and questionnaires, as well as on the draft final report. The Government nevertheless indicates that these letters are not always followed by a response. In its General Survey on tripartite consultation international labour standards, 2000, paragraph 71, the Committee notes that under the terms of paragraph 2(3) of the Tripartite Consultation (Activities of the International Labour Organisation) Recommendation, 1976 (No. 152), consultations through written communications should be undertaken only “where those involved in the consultative procedures are agreed that such communications are appropriate and sufficient”. In this regard, the Committee requests the Government to indicate whether the written consultative procedure was previously agreed with the social partners. In light of the Government’s stated intention to avail itself of the technical assistance of the Office to ensure that the committee is operational, the Committee hopes that such assistance will be provided in the near future. The Committee expresses the firm hope that the abovementioned draft Order will be adopted as soon as possible and requests the Government to keep it informed of any developments in this regard. It therefore once again requests the Government to provide specific information on the content, frequency and outcome of the tripartite consultations held on all of the matters relating to international labour standards covered by the Convention, including questionnaires concerning items on the agenda of the Conference (Article 5(1)(a)), the proposals to be made in connection with the submission of instruments adopted by the Conference to the National Assembly (Article 5(1)(b)), the re-examination at appropriate intervals of unratified Conventions and of Recommendations to which effect has not yet been given (Article 5(1)(c)), reports to be made on the application of ratified Conventions (Article 5(1)(d)) and proposals for the denunciation of ratified Conventions (Article 5(1)(e)). The Committee also requests the Government to provide information on the outcome of the meetings organized by the Ministry of Labour on the matters relating to international labour standards.
