Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1989, published 76th ILC session (1989)

Tripartite Consultation (International Labour Standards) Convention, 1976 (No. 144) - Spain (Ratification: 1984)

Further to its previous comment, the Committee takes note of the information supplied by the Government in its last report, and in particular the information concerning the application of Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Convention.

The Committee also notes the information concerning the application of Article 6, to the effect that, until now, it has not been deemed appropriate to produce an annual report on the working of the procedures covered by the Convention. It requests the Government to state whether, in accordance with this provision, the employers' and workers' representative organisations have been consulted on this matter.

Finally, the Committee notes the comments submitted by the Trade Union Confederation of Workers' Committees alleging, among other points, that the Government has not consulted the representative trade union organisations on the questions which might arise from the reports to be presented to the ILO under article 22 of the Constitution, in accordance with Article 5, paragraph 1(d). These comments were received on 28 February and forwarded to the Government on 2 March 1989. The Committee requests the Government to indicate its opinion on this subject.
