Observation Générale (CEACR) - adoptée 2021, publiée 110ème session CIT (2022)

Vanuatu

The Committee notes with deep concern that, for the third year, the reports due on ratified Conventions have not been received. Seven reports are now due on fundamental and technical Conventions, including the first report on the application of the Minimum Age Convention, 1973 (No. 138). In addition, some of these reports should have included information in reply to the Committee’s comments. The Committee launches an urgent appeal to the Government to send its reports without delay, and advises the Government that, even in the absence of these reports, the Committee may fully review the application of these Conventions at its next meeting on the basis of available information.

Recalling that technical assistance was provided on these issues this year by the International Training Centre of the ILO, the Committee firmly hopes that the Government will soon submit all its reports in accordance with its constitutional obligation and that they will respond to the Committee’s comments.
