Santa Lucía

Serious failure to submit. The Committee once again notes with deep concern that the Government has provided no response to its previous comments. It recalls once more that the constitutional obligation of submission is of the highest importance and is a fundamental element of the standards system of the ILO. The Committee therefore once again expresses the firm hope, as did the Conference Committee in June 2016, June 2017, June 2018, June 2019, June 2021, June 2022 and June 2023, that the Government will comply with its obligation to submit Conventions, Recommendations and Protocols to the competent authority. It firmly urges the Government to provide information on the submission to Parliament of the 79 remaining Conventions, Recommendations and Protocols adopted by the Conference from 1980 to 2019 (66th, 67th (Convention No. 156 and Recommendations Nos 164 and 165), 68th (Convention No. 157 and Protocol of 1982), 69th, 70th, 71st, 72nd, 74th, 75th, 76th, 77th, 78th, 79th, 80th, 81st, 82nd, 83rd, 84th, 85th, 86th, 88th, 89th, 90th (Recommendations Nos 193 and 194), 91st, 92nd, 94th, 95th, 96th, 99th, 100th, 101st, 103rd, 104th, 106th and 108th Sessions).

The Committee once again recalls that the Government may request the technical assistance of the Office, if it so wishes, to assist it in achieving compliance with its obligations under article 19 of the Constitution with respect to the submission to the competent authorities of the instruments adopted by the Conference.
