In reply to the Committee’s previous comments, the Government indicates that copies of the reports and questionnaires to be submitted to the ILO are sent to the most representative employers’ and workers’ organizations in order to obtain their comments. It adds that all comments received from the social partners are then included in the Government’s reports. The Government also indicates that discussions concerning the possibility of ratifying the Labour Clauses (Public Contracts) Convention, 1949 (No. 94), were held in the tripartite Economic and Social Council (ESC) on 10 April 2015 and 7 January 2016.
