Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1995, published 82nd ILC session (1995)

Tripartite Consultation (International Labour Standards) Convention, 1976 (No. 144) - Togo (Ratification: 1983)

With reference to its previous observation, the Committee notes the Government's report. It notes the statement that the activities of the National Labour Council have been suspended owing to social and political unrest, but that arrangements are under way to enable the Council's activities to be resumed and thereby ensure the implementation of the Convention.

The Committee recalls that the consultations established by the Convention specifically concern the ILO's activities listed in Article 5, paragraph 1, of the Convention and that, in accordance with Article 5, paragraph 2, the consultations must take place at least once a year.

The Committee hopes that in its next report the Government will be able to provide information on developments in the situation, together with the information required by the report form on consultations held during the period covered by the report.
