Bharat Textiles Ltd. employs workers in India. A national workers' union alleges that India, having ratified an ILO Convention, is not applying it in practice. Under the ILO's regular supervisory system, which body first examines the periodic reports submitted by the government on ratified Conventions?

The Committee of Experts on the Application of Conventions and Recommendations (CEACR) first examines government reports on ratified Conventions. It is an independent expert body that issues observations and direct requests, and its work then goes to the tripartite Conference Committee on the Application of Standards.

Explanation

Governments send periodic reports on ratified Conventions. These are first examined by the CEACR, a body of independent legal experts, which issues observations and direct requests. The ICJ does not conduct regular supervision, though it may be asked to interpret Conventions.
