Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1993, published 80th ILC session (1993)

Tripartite Consultation (International Labour Standards) Convention, 1976 (No. 144) - United Republic of Tanzania (Ratification: 1983)

The Committee notes the general information given in the Government's report concerning Article 5 of the Convention. However, it requests the Government to provide more detailed particulars of the consultations held (i.e. the specific subjects treated) on each of the matters set out in paragraph 1, including information as to the frequency of such consultations. Please indicate, as requested in the report form, the nature of any reports or recommendations made as a result of the consultations.

The Committee further notes the information concerning the difficulties of the application of the Convention in Zanzibar due to the non-existence of an employers' organization. It notes that measures are currently under way in Zanzibar to establish an employers' organization and that assistance from the ILO has been requested to this effect. The Committee hopes that representative employers' organizations will soon be established so that the Convention will be fully applied in this part of the country. It requests the Government to keep the ILO informed of all development in this respect.
