Article 5 of the Convention. The Committee notes from the brief information supplied by the Government that it has not yet been possible to implement any of the tripartite consultation procedures due to the current reorganization of the Department of Labour. It hopes that the Government will be in a position in the near future to hold the consultations provided for by the Convention on all the points mentioned in paragraph 1 and that the next report will reflect such progress. It also recalls that, in accordance with paragraph 2 of this Article, the consultations shall be undertaken at appropriate intervals, "but at least once a year".

Articles 4 and 6. The Committee also notes the Government's statement that it assumes responsibility as the competent authority for the administrative support of the procedures provided for in Article 4. It would be grateful if the Government would supply in due course the information required on the appropriate arrangements for the financing of any necessary training of participants (paragraph 2), and on the preparation of an annual report on the working of the procedures.
