Article 5 of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that, in accordance with section 43 of the Labour Code and section 6 of Regulation No. 21 of 2010, which establishes the mandate of the Tripartite Committee on Labour Affairs, tripartite consultations are held within the Tripartite Committee. With regard to labour-related matters, including international labour standards, the Government refers in particular to tripartite consultations relating to questionnaires on Conference agenda items and the re-examination of unratified Conventions and Recommendations to which effect has not yet been given. The Committee notes, however, that the Government does not provide the detailed information requested on the content and outcome of the tripartite consultations held on all international labour matters covered under this Article of the Convention. The Committee therefore requests the Government to provide updated and detailed information on the content and outcome of the tripartite consultations held on all matters concerning international labour standards covered by the Convention: questionnaires relating to Conference agenda items (Article 5(1)(a)); the submission of instruments adopted by the Conference to the competent national authorities (Article 5(1)(b)); the re-examination at appropriate intervals of unratified Conventions and Recommendations to which effect has not yet been given (Article 5(1)(c)); reports to be presented on the application of ratified Conventions (Article 5(1)(d)); and proposals for the denunciation of Conventions (Article 5 (1)(e)).
In the context of the global COVID-19 pandemic, the Committee recalls the comprehensive guidance provided by international labour standards. It encourages member States to engage in tripartite consultation and social dialogue more broadly as a solid foundation for developing and implementing effective responses to the profound socio-economic impacts of the pandemic. The Committee invites the Government to continue to provide updated information in its next report on the impact of the measures taken in this respect, in accordance with Article 4 of the Convention and Paragraphs 3 and 4 of Recommendation No. 152, including with regard to steps taken to reinforce the capacity of the tripartite constituents and strengthen mechanisms and procedures, as well as challenges and good practices identified.
