Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 1989, Publicación: 76ª reunión CIT (1989)

Convenio sobre la consulta tripartita (normas internacionales del trabajo), 1976 (núm. 144) - Países Bajos (Ratificación : 1978)

1. The Committee notes the information concerning the application of Article 5, paragraph 1(e) of the Convention furnished by the Government. It also notes the comments made by the Federation of Christian Trade Unions in the Netherlands (CNV) and the Netherlands Council of Employers' Federations (RCO).

2. The Government indicates in its report that, notwithstanding the consultations, written as well as oral, held on the proposal for the denunciation of the Employment Injury Benefits Convention, 1964 (No. 121), both the organisations of employers and of workers have protested that the observance of the consultation procedure with respect to this matter was not entirely adequate.

3. In its comments on the Government's report, the CNV specifies that the objections of the social partners rose from the fact that the period for consultations was extremely short and that, as a result, little time was left for the consultations and the parliamentary procedure.

4. The Committee notes that, in reaction to these objections, the Government is drawing up a written procedure in respect of matters arising out of the denunciation of Conventions. It would be grateful if the Government would supply in its next report information on any development in this matter.
