Effective tripartite consultations. The Committee notes the information provided in the Government’s report received in September 2018. In particular, it notes the adoption during the reporting period of Decree No. 17/2015 of 14 August, which reinforces the tripartite Labour Advisory Commission, increasing the number of representatives of each of the tripartite constituents from six to eight members for each group at the ordinary sessions of the Commission. In addition, the Decree increases the frequency of ordinary sessions of the Commission, from two to four sessions per year. In addition, the Government indicates that the Decree decentralizes social dialogue, with a view to promoting regular tripartite dialogue throughout the country, providing that the Governor of each province assumes the presidency of the local tripartite committee. The Government reports that, in 2017, the Labour Advisory Commission held five ordinary sessions and two extraordinary sessions, in which it discussed legislative matters, as well as labour, economic and social issues. The Committee notes that, among other items, the Commission examined the Plan of Action relative to the Employment Policy adopted in 2015, as well as the Plan of Action for the Elimination of the Worst Forms of Child Labour. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that the discussions included an examination of the Occupational Safety and Health Convention, 1981 (No. 155) and the Promotional Framework for Occupational Safety and Health Convention, 2006 (No. 187). In addition, the consultations examined the procedures for ratification of the Safety and Health in Mines Convention, 1995 (No. 176) the 1995 Protocol to the Labour Inspection Convention, 1947 (No. 81) and the 2014 Protocol to the Forced Labour Convention, 1930 (No. 29). The Committee notes with interest that the ratification of the 2014 Protocol to Convention No. 29 and Convention No. 81 was approved by the National Assembly in December 2017, with the instruments being ratified on 14 June 2018. The Committee requests the Government to communicate detailed and updated information setting out the specific content and outcomes of the tripartite consultations held concerning each of the matters covered under Article 5(1) of the Convention, including copies of the minutes of the Labour Advisory Commission. Moreover, the Committee reiterates its request that the Government provide information on the content and outcomes of tripartite consultations held at the provincial level on matters concerning international labour standards covered under Article 5(1).
