Article 2 of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations. The Committee notes the information supplied in the Government’s first report on the application of the Convention received in July 2008. The Government indicates that the Convention is applied through the practice of written communications to the representatives of social partners and by consultations under the auspices of the National Labour Board, established by section B7 of the Labour Code. The Committee requests the Government to provide in its next report further information on the operation of the mechanism of consultation on international labour standards, including precise information on the activities of the National Labour Board on the matters covered by the Convention.

Article 5, paragraph 1(a), (b) and (c). Tripartite consultations required under the Convention. The Government states in its report that no consultations were held in reference to questionnaires concerning items on the agenda of the International Labour Conference or on the Government’s comments on proposed texts to be discussed at the Conference. The Committee also notes that, while the Government indicates that consultations are held in respect of proposals to be made to the competent authority in connection with the submission of Conventions and Recommendations pursuant to article 19 of the Constitution, the Committee observed in 2008 that the Government had yet to supply the relevant information concerning the submission to the Parliament of Antigua and Barbuda of the instruments adopted by the Conference during the sessions held between 1996 and 2007. The Government indicates that consultations to re-examine unratified Conventions and Recommendations to which effect has not been given were not applicable to Antigua and Barbuda at this time. The Committee invites the Government to provide information on how effect is given to Article 5, paragraph 1(a) and (b), of the Convention. The Government is also requested to provide information on consultations held to re-examine unratified Conventions, in particular the Labour Inspection (Agriculture) Convention, 1969 (No. 129), which is deemed a priority Convention; the Holidays with Pay Convention (Revised), 1970 (No. 132), which revises the Weekly Rest (Industry) Convention, 1921 (No. 14), and the Holidays with Pay (Agriculture) Convention, 1952 (No. 101), to which Antigua and Barbuda is a party; and the Seafarers’ Identity Documents Convention (Revised), 2003 (No. 185), which revises the Seafarers’ Identity Documents Convention, 1958 (No. 108), which has also been ratified by Antigua and Barbuda.
