Articles 2 and 5(1)(a)–(e). Effective tripartite consultations. In its previous comments, the Committee requested the Government to provide information on the content and outcome of tripartite consultations held on each of the matters regarding international labour standards listed in Article 5(1) of the Convention. The Government reports that tripartite consultations have been undertaken through several platforms. It indicates that the tripartite National Labour Advisory Council (NLAC) consults representatives of employers’ and workers’ organizations with regard to international labour standards. The NLAC is chaired by the Minister of Human Resources. The Government further reports that, since the formation of the new government, the NLAC has met four times to discuss a wide breadth of labour issues. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that the National Occupational Safety and Health Policy was launched in February 2019, following consultations with tripartite partners and industry actors. The Government reports that the outcome of the consultations is reflected in the Policy, adding that it is working with the ILO and the social partners to finalize the process of consideration of ratification of the Occupational Safety and Health Convention, 1981 (No. 155). In respect of its submission obligations, the Government reports that tripartite discussions have been undertaken through the NLAC with a view to submitting the relevant instruments adopted by the International Labour Conference to Parliament in July 2019 (Article 5(1)(b)). In relation to the re-examination of unratified Conventions and the possible denunciation of outdated Conventions, the Government indicates that it is holding preliminary discussions with the Government agencies concerned and will undertake consultations with the social partners in due course concerning the possible ratification of the Indigenous and Tribal Peoples Convention, 1989 (No. 169). The Committee requests the Government to continue to provide updated information on the content and outcome of tripartite consultations held on each of the matters regarding international labour standards listed in Article 5(1) of the Convention. In particular, the Committee requests the Government to provide information on the outcome of consultations concerning the prospects of ratification of Conventions Nos 155 and 169.
