The Committee notes with interest the first report of the Government which covers the period ending 30 June 1991. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would continue to supply in its next reports particulars on the consultations held on each of the matters set out in paragraph 1 of Article 5 of the Convention, and it would like to request further particulars on the following Articles of the Convention.

Article 3, paragraph 2, of the Convention. The Committee notes that, according to the report of the Government, the national body which has been established to carry out consultations on matters cited under the Convention is the Tripartite Consultative Sub-Committee on ILO matters. The report of the Government indicates further that the organisations of employers and workers may send varying numbers of representatives and that some tripartite structures are established under legislation, which authority ensures that, in principle, representation is on an equal footing.

The Committee agrees that this provision must be interpreted as implying not strict numerical equality between employees and workers but the attribution of equal weight to the opinions of either side and equal representation of their views and interests. However, it would be grateful if the Government would supply more detailed information on the manner in which effect is given to this provision.

Article 4, paragraph 2, of the Convention. The Committee notes that the Government, in its report, states that provision has not yet been made on the financing of any training of participants in the consultative process. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate whether such training is considered necessary and such arrangements as provided by this provision are being planned.

Article 6 of the Convention. The Committee notes that, according to the report of the Government, the question of producing an annual report on the working of the procedures provided for in the Convention has not yet been discussed. Please give particulars of the consultations that should take place with the representative organisations on this question.
