Article 5 of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. In reply to the previous direct request, the Government refers to the matters discussed annually through tripartite consultations during the 2011–14 period. The Government indicates that in 2012 the Labour, Economic and Social Council (LESCO) discussed and endorsed the Government’s proposal concerning the submission to Parliament of the Domestic Workers Convention, 2011 (No. 189). At its 2014 meeting, the members of LESCO deliberated on the Government’s action plan towards ratifying Convention No. 189. The Committee notes that, with respect to the Zanzibar Labour Advisory Board, a consultative meeting was held in 2013 to raise awareness on Convention No. 189 and its accompanying Recommendation No. 201. At the 2014 meeting, a workshop was conducted on international labour standards and the Zanzibar Labour Advisory Board members discussed questions arising out of the reports to be made under article 22 of the ILO Constitution. The Committee invites the Government to provide information on the content and outcome of the consultations held on the matters set out in Article 5(1) of the Convention, including consultations on the re-examination of unratified Conventions with its social partners.
Article 4(2). Financing of training. The Committee notes that in 2013 newly appointed LESCO members received training on matters related to powers and functions of the Council. During the August 2014 meeting, members of LESCO were trained on matters related to principles of social dialogue and consultative procedures, with technical support under the United Nations Development Assistance Plan (UNDAP). The Committee further notes that the Zanzibar Labour Advisory Board members will receive training when financial resources are available. The Committee invites the Government to continue to provide information on any arrangements made to finance the training of LESCO and Zanzibar Labour Advisory Board members on the consultative procedures set forth by the Convention. The Committee draws the Government’s attention to the possibility of availing itself of ILO technical assistance to help strengthen social dialogue and support the activities that governments, employers’ and workers’ organizations undertake with respect to the consultations required by the Convention.
