Convention (n° 122) sur la politique de l'emploi, 1964 - Irlande (Ratification: 1967)

The Committee notes with regret that the Government’s report has not been received. It refers to its 2005 direct request, and requests the Government to submit a report, for examination by the Committee at its next session, containing information on the following matters.

Articles 1 and 2 of the Convention. Employment trends and labour market policies. The Committee invites the Government to provide an assessment of the impact of its active labour market measures. It would also appreciate receiving information on how the measures taken to promote full and productive employment operate within a “framework of a coordinated economic and social policy”, including information on the achievements of the National Action Employment Programme, in terms of employment generation.

Please also provide information on the impact of the legislation adopted in 2005 on the issuance of work permits and on the integration of migrant workers in the Irish labour market.

Article 3. Participation of the social partners. The Committee asks the Government to provide information on the consultations held with representatives of the persons affected, both at the stage of the formulation of employment policies and in relation to the implementation of the measures adopted under such policies.

[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2009.]
