Dear Sir/Madam,
--- As has now been the practice since 2006, please find attached (Annex I) a preliminary list of
individual cases for possible discussion at the Committee on the Application of Standards (the
Committee) during the 111th Session (June 2023) of the International Labour Conference. In
accordance with the established practice, this list has been drawn up by the social partners.
The social partners are requesting me to stress that this preliminary list is only a tentative list and
should not in any way be considered definitive, as the adoption of a final list is a function that
only the Conference Committee itself can assume. By providing a preliminary list, the social
partners have expressed their desire to positively respond to the requests from governments for
early notification, so that they may better prepare themselves for a possible intervention before
the Committee. This list should not give rise to any form of pressure or other prejudicial act
against workers, employers or their organizations.
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the list of individual cases includes those cases, indicated
in this preliminary list with a double asterisk, in which the Committee of Experts has requested
governments to supply full information to the Conference at its 111th Session (the so-called
“double footnote” cases). 1
Based on the outcome of the informal tripartite consultations on the working methods of the
Committee, Governments appearing on the preliminary list of cases are invited to provide, if they
so wished, written information to the Committee. The information provided, on a purely voluntary
basis, should concern only new developments not yet examined by the Committee of Experts. It
must be transmitted at least in one of the three working languages of the Office and, to the extent
possible, should not exceed 2 000 words. This information should reach the Office by 22 May 2023
and will be published in the web page of the Committee. A specific template for transmission of
the information is available on the web page of the Committee.
Finally, please note that the document D.1 “Work of the Committee”, which reflects the outcome
of the latest informal tripartite consultations on the Committee's working methods, as well as
document D.0 (Provisional working schedule of the Committee) will be available shortly on the
Committee’s webpage.

Please see the table inserted in paragraph 117 of the General Report of the Report of the Committee of
Experts on the Application of Conventions and Recommendations (ILC, 2023, Report III (Part (A)).
The International Labour Office, and in particular, the International Labour Standards
Department and the Decent Work Technical Support Team servicing your country, remain at your
disposal to provide your Government with any technical assistance it may require in respect of
the preparation of the upcoming session of the Committee.
I hope that the information contained in this letter and its attachments will assist your country in
its preparations for the forthcoming session of the Committee on the Application of Standards of
the International Labour Conference.
Yours faithfully,
For the Director General:
Corinne Vargha
Director of the International
Labour Standards Department
