Articles 2 and 5 of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in response to its previous comments initially made in 2015. The Government reports that the National Tripartite Council (NTC) was reconstituted in 2018 to include nine members, divided equally among the tripartite partners. The NTC is presided over by the Minister of Labour. The Government indicates that tripartite consultation has embraced diverse matters that include implementation of the Decent Work Act, harmonization of the national labour laws and pandemic safety measures for the workplace. It adds that NTC meetings are convened when issues arise, but are held at least twice per year. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that one of the key achievements of the NTC was the determination of a salary payment of 50 per cent for non-essential or other staff who were required to remain home during the COVID-19 pandemic. Noting the Government’s response concerning the frequency of consultations since 2018, the Committee once again requests the Government to provide detailed information on the content and outcome of the tripartite consultations held on each of the matters relating to international labour standards covered by Article 5(1)(a) through (e) of the Convention, including information as to the nature of any reports or recommendations made as a result of the consultations held.
Article 5(1)(b). Submission to the National Legislature. The Government reports that, while the NTC has begun discussions on the various Conventions referenced by the Committee in its previous comments, the pandemic has adversely affected the space on the legislative agenda for many matters. Noting that the Government’s report provides no information with respect to tripartite consultations held on proposals to be made to the National Legislature in connection with the submission of 21 instruments adopted by the International Labour Conference, the Committee reiterates its request that the Government provide information on the effective tripartite consultations held with regard to the submission to the National Legislature of the 17 Conventions and Recommendations adopted by the Conference between 2000 and 2014, as well as the Protocols adopted in 1990, 1995, 2002 and 2014. In addition, the Committee requests the Government to provide information regarding the tripartite consultations held in relation to the four Conventions and Recommendations adopted by the Conference between 2015 and 2019.
