Effective tripartite consultations. The Committee takes note of the report received in October 2013 referring to tripartite administrative measures implemented by the Government for the protection of workers’ health and safety. The Government also indicates that the Labour Directorate has introduced a procedure for the establishment and operation of regional tripartite councils of users of the Labour Directorate. As to the still outstanding issue of the submission to the National Congress of the instruments adopted by the Conference, the Government states that it will explore the best means of taking into account the views of the employers and the workers. The Committee requests the Government to provide in its next report information on the tripartite consultations held with the representative organizations concerned on the matters relating to international labour standards required by Articles 2 and 5 of the Convention. The Committee refers to its observation regarding the obligation to submit established in article 19(5) and (6) of the ILO Constitution, in which it indicates that 28 instruments adopted by the International Labour Conference are awaiting submission. It requests the Government to report on the effective consultations held with the social partners on the proposals made to the National Congress in connection with the submission of instruments adopted by the Conference (Article 5(1)(b) of the Convention).
