Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1997, published 86th ILC session (1998)

Tripartite Consultation (International Labour Standards) Convention, 1976 (No. 144) - Indonesia (Ratification: 1990)

The Committee notes that the Government's report contains no reply to previous comments. It hopes that the next report will include full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which reads as follows:

The Committee notes that the Government has sent, in reply to its previous comments, a copy of Ministerial Order No. KEP-98/MEN/1994 relating to the national tripartite cooperation body. It notes, however, that this text does not grant any specific competence on matters relating to ILO activities. It would be grateful if the Government would indicate in what way this body intervenes, if necessary, in the framework of consultation procedures provided for in the Convention.

In this respect, the Committee reminds the Government that it asked it, in its direct request of 1993, to supply information on the consultations held regarding each of the matters set out in Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Convention and to specify the nature of any reports or recommendations resulting from these consultations which, under paragraph 2, shall be undertaken at least once a year. It also requested the Government to indicate whether an annual report on the working of the consultation procedures had been prepared or was planned in application of Article 6.
