Article 5(1) of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. The Committee notes the information provided by the Government with respect to the activities of the National Tripartite Committee (NTC) during the reporting period. The Government reports that the NTC has had discussions with national stakeholders, in relation to the establishment of a National Industrial Tribunal as well as on the National Minimum Wage Survey which the NTC administered throughout the 10 Administrative Regions of the country in 2016. The Government adds that the results of the Survey were used to establish the minimum wage order of 1 January 2017. The Committee further notes that the NTC was integrally involved in developing the 5-year Decent Work Country Programme for Guyana, which came to an end in December 2021. The Committee nevertheless notes that the Government does not provide any information on the content or outcome of tripartite consultations held on matters concerning international labour standards, as required by Article 5(1) of the Convention. The Committee therefore reiterates its request that the Government provide detailed updated information on the content and outcome of tripartite consultations held in relation to all matters covered under Article 5(1): the Government’s replies to questionnaires concerning items on the agenda of the International Labour Conference, particularly with regard to the Government’s comments on proposed texts to be discussed by the Conference (Article 5(1)(a)); consultations held with the social partners on the proposals made to the competent authorities on the submission of instruments adopted by the Conference (Article 5(1)(b)); tripartite consultations on the re-examination of unratified Conventions and Recommendations to which effect has not yet been given (Article 5(1)(c)); questions arising out of reports to be presented on the application of ratified Conventions (Article 5(1)(d)); and on the possible denunciation of ratified Conventions (Article 5(1)(e)).
