Article 5 of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. In reply to the Committee’s previous comments, the Government reiterates that the working group, including representatives of the Mongolian Confederation of Trade Unions (CMTU) and the Mongolian Employers’ Confederation (MONEF) was still studying the possibility of ratifying the Labour Inspection Convention, 1947 (No. 81), and the Safety and Health in Agriculture Convention, 2001 (No. 184). The Government also reiterates that a study was carried out in relation to the possible ratification of the Protection of Wages Convention, 1949 (No. 95), and that the CMTU and MONEF had been requested to provide their comments in this respect. In this context, the Committee recalls its 2015 comments, in which it noted the observations of the CMTU indicating that consultations have been held since 2008 on Convention No. 95 without any decision being reached. The Government reports that, in 2017, the tripartite International Labour Standards Subcommittee organized a tripartite labour and society consultation, headed by the State Secretary of the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection, in relation to the preparation of the report on the application of the Convention. The Committee reiterates its request that the Government provide updated, detailed information on the content and outcomes of tripartite consultations held on each of the matters related to international labour standards as required under Article 5(1)(a)–(e) of the Convention. Please also indicate the frequency of the consultations held. The Committee further requests the Government to supply updated information concerning the outcome of tripartite consultations held in respect of the possible ratification of the Protection of Wages Convention, 1949 (No. 95), including the nature of comments received from the social partners in this regard. The Committee invites the Government to provide updated, detailed information on the activities of the International Labour Standards Subcommittee with respect to ensuring effective tripartite consultations on all of the matters covered under Article 5 of the Convention.
