Observation (CEACR) - adopted 2010, published 100th ILC session (2011)

Tripartite Consultation (International Labour Standards) Convention, 1976 (No. 144) - Sao Tome and Principe (Ratification: 1992)

The Committee notes with regret that the Government’s report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observations which read as follows:

Mechanisms for tripartite consultations and the consultations required by the Convention. In a brief report received in March 2007, the Government refers to the tripartite consultations carried out through the National Council for Social Dialogue. The Government also indicates that the National Council meets regularly. The Committee refers to its previous observations and once again invites the Government to indicate in its next report the manner in which the National Council is involved in the consultations required by the Convention and to provide particulars of the consultations held on each of the matters on international labour standards referred to in Article 5(1) of the Convention, including information on the reports or recommendations made on international labour standards as a result of such consultations.

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the near future.
