Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1993, Publicación: 80ª reunión CIT (1993)

Convenio sobre la consulta tripartita (normas internacionales del trabajo), 1976 (núm. 144) - Nueva Zelandia (Ratificación : 1987)

The Committee notes the information contained in the Government's report. It also notes the comments of the New Zealand Employers' Federation, which concur with the Government's report, and of the New Zealand Council of Trade Unions (CTU), which has expressed dissatisfaction with the present consultation practice and requests clearly defined procedures for more formal consultations. In particular, the CTU considers that the new industrial relations system introduced by the Employment Contracts Act of 1991 and a change in government attitudes towards trade unions have affected tripartite consultations under this Convention.

The Committee further notes from the report that the Government has met the President of the Council of Trade Unions to discuss the issue and that a further tripartite meeting is planned to review the consultative procedures. The Committee asks the Government to supply in its next report information about any changes in the procedures concerning tripartite consultation.
