The Committee notes the Government’s report received in November 2005 in reply to its previous comments. It would be grateful if the Government would communicate additional information and relevant documents in relation to the following matters.

Articles 1 and 6 of the Convention. The Committee notes the Government’s indication of the bodies which make up the labour administration system. It also notes the Government’s statement to the effect that Malawi does not have a written national labour policy, but that the assistance of a consultant, hired within the framework of cooperation with Norway, should allow for the development of a comprehensive national employment and labour policy. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide copies of any texts in force concerning the functions and operation of each of the bodies which, according to its report, exercise competence in the area of labour administration, and supply information, including any relevant documents, on the progress of the abovementioned consultant’s mission and on any measures taken on the basis of his recommendations.

Article 3. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide a copy of one or more of the collective labour agreements concluded by the social partners in pursuance of this provision.

Article 4. The Committee asks the Government to provide a copy of any reports or extracts thereof on the basis of which the Government monitors the operation and coordination of the various bodies of the labour administration system.

Article 5. The Committee asks the Government to provide copies of reports or extracts thereof on the work of the national, regional and district-level tripartite consultation bodies referred to in its report.

Article 7. Noting that consultations were held with the social partners on the application of this provision and that the resulting proposals were to be submitted to Parliament, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would keep the International Labour Office informed of any progress made in this respect and communicate any relevant documents.

Article 10. The Committee notes with interest that training has been provided to new inspectors with the assistance of the Office and that means of transport have been reinforced thanks to motorcycles provided by UNICEF and the International Labour Office within the framework of the SLASSA/ILSSA project and two motor vehicles provided by the Ministry. According to the Government, these new means of transport have contributed to significantly improving the operation of the inspection service, with the Ministry now able to compile statistics and publish them annually. The Committee hopes that the Government will send the inspection reports for 2003, 2004 and 2005 without fail, as it has promised.
