Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1995, Publicación: 83ª reunión CIT (1996)

Convenio sobre la consulta tripartita (normas internacionales del trabajo), 1976 (núm. 144) - Suriname (Ratificación : 1979)

The Committee notes the Government's latest two reports and the Labour Advisory Board's reports for 1992, 1993 and 1994. It also notes the observation made by the Suriname Trade and Industry Association (VSB) on application of the Convention.

The Committee notes that the Labour Advisory Board is consulted on the matters listed under points (a), (b), (c) and (d) of Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Convention.

The Committee has still not found in the various reports of the Labour Advisory Board the information required under Article 5 of the Convention; it therefore requests the Government to supply in its next report full and detailed information on any consultations which have been held during the period covered on each of the matters listed under paragraph 1 of this Article.

Finally, the Committee notes that the aforementioned observation by the VSB employers' organization relates to a draft Decree concerning the concept of "representativeness" in the Labour Advisory Board and raises the question of the advisability of informing the ILO of the debate it arouses.

The Committee requests the Government to specify to what extent this draft text concerns the representativeness of the subcommittee for the ILO and to give its point of view on the question raised by the VSB.
