Articles 2 and 5(1)(a)–(e). Effective tripartite consultations. Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. In its previous comments, the Committee requested the Government to provide information on tripartite consultations held on matters relating to international labour standards set out in Article 5(1) of the Convention. The Committee further invited the Government to provide information on the outcome of consultations held with the social partners concerning the possibility of ratification of Conventions Nos 155 and 169. The Government was also invited to provide information on measures taken, in light of the COVID-19 pandemic to guarantee and reinforce the continuation of tripartite consultation and social dialogue. The Government indicates that the physical meetings and engagements of the tripartite National Labour Advisory Council (NLAC) were not permitted, due to the safety measures to curtail the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. It nevertheless, engaged with employers and workers on a continuous basis through online platforms to discuss labour-related issues. With regard to the possibility of ratification of Convention No. 155, the Committee notes that the Government is in the process of amending the national legislation to bring it into compliance with the requirements on the Convention. Tripartite consultations have been held in the National OSH Council on the amendment process. The Government indicates that the possibility of ratifying Convention No. 169 is currently in the process of inter-ministerial consultations and the outcome has yet to be determined. The Committee requests the Government to provide updated detailed information on the content, frequency and outcome of the tripartite consultations held during the reporting period on all matters concerning international labour standards covered by Article 5 of the Convention. The Government is also requested to keep the office informed of the outcome of consultations held on the possible ratification of Conventions Nos 155 and 169.
