The Committee notes the observations of the Workers’ Confederation of Comoros (CTTC), received on 28 August 2018. The Committee requests the Government to send its comments in this respect.
Articles 1, 2 and 5 of the Convention. Representative organizations. Effective tripartite consultations. The Committee notes the Government’s first report on the application of the Convention. However, it notes that, overall, the information in the report does not enable it to fully evaluate the effect given to the provisions of the Convention. The Government indicates that the national legislation, in particular the Constitution, the Labour Code and the Public Service Act, recognizes the representativeness of trade unions and employers’ organizations. In its observations, the CTTC confirms the information sent by the Government and adds that the Act establishing the National Solidarity and Social Welfare Fund and the Decree issuing its regulations were adopted before the ratification of the Convention. The Government emphasizes that the trade unions and employers’ organizations have been consulted in the preparation of strategic documents relating to employment and decent work, and that they form part, in certain executive boards, of the institutions that come within the competence of the Ministry of Labour. The Committee notes that documents of the International Labour Conference and, at times, copies of comments on ILO Conventions and Recommendations are forwarded to representative employers’ and workers’ organizations. The Government indicates that its takes care to inform the social partners of all arrangements made for promoting the implementation and ratification of unratified Conventions and Recommendations to which effect has not yet been given. The Government adds that, since the ratification of the Convention, it has not received any supervision from the ILO and the application of the provisions of the Convention has been lacking. The CTTC points out that the labour and employment advisory commission has been set up but that it is not operational at present, its last session dating back to November 2015. The CTTC also emphasizes that structured social dialogue has been interrupted at present by the Ministry of Labour. The Committee notes that, in view of this situation, the Government is requesting technical assistance from the Office with a view to promotion of the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to indicate which are the representative organizations for the purposes of the Convention. The Committee also requests the Government to provide detailed information on the substance, frequency, outcome and content of tripartite consultations held on each of the matters relating to international labour standards covered by the Convention, including: questionnaires concerning items on the agenda of the International Labour Conference (Article 5(1)(a)); proposals to be made in connection with the submission to the National Assembly of instruments adopted by the Conference (Article 5(1)(b)) and the re-examination at appropriate intervals of unratified Conventions and of Recommendations to which effect has not yet been given (Article 5(1)(c)); reports to be made on the application of ratified Conventions (Article 5(1)(d)); and proposals for the denunciation of ratified Conventions (Article 5(1)(e)).
