The Committee notes that the Government's report contains no reply to its comments. It hopes that the next report will include full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

Article 3, paragraph 2, of the Convention. The Committee notes that, in addition to the functions set out in paragraph 1 of this Article, several other duties have been conferred on the Inspectorate of Labour and Social Legislation, particularly under sections 122, 139 and 159 of the Labour Code. Please indicate the measures taken to ensure that these duties do not interfere with the effective discharge of primary duties of the inspectors.

Article 7, paragraph 3. While noting that the inspectors of the Inspectorate of Labour and Social Legislation are recruited from among students of the National School of Administration, the Committee requests the Government to indicate the measures taken to ensure that labour inspectors are adequately trained for the performance of their duties, both on entering the service and subsequently.

Articles 10 and 16. Please indicate, bearing in mind the various duties conferred on the Inspectorare of Labour and Social Legislation, whether the number of labour inspectors is sufficient to ensure that workplaces liable to inspection are inspected as often and as thoroughly as is necessary.

Article 11, paragraph 1. The Committee notes that the inspection services are encountering practical difficulties owing to the lack of material means at their disposal. Please indicate the measures taken or contemplated to remedy these difficulties.

Article 11, paragraph 2. Please indicate the arrangements made to ensure that labour inspectors are reimbursed for any travelling and incidental expenses which may be necessary for the performance of their duties.

Articles 13, paragraph 2(b). The Committee notes the Government's statement that, as part of the revision of the Labour Code, section 128 is to be amended to include a subsection empowering inspectors of labour and social legislation to make or have made orders requiring measures with immediate executory force in the event of imminent danger to the health or safety of the workers. It hopes that measures to give full effect to this provision will be taken shortly and requests the Government to provide information on any progress made in this respect.

Article 14. The Committee notes that, under section 80 of the Social Welfare Code, any occupational accidents or diseases noted in the workplace must be notified to the National Social Welfare Fund. Please indicate the manner in which the Inspectorate of Labour and Social Legislation is informed of cooupational accidents and diseases.

Articles 20 and 21. The Committee notes that the annual report on the work of the inspection services has not been received by the ILO. It hopes that, in future, these reports, containing information on all the subjects listed in Article 21, will be published and transmitted within the time-limit established in Article 20.

The Committee also requests the Government to enclose with its next report the following texts which it referred to in its first report: General Order No. 2442/IGT of 10 June 1946 respecting the organisation and operation of the labour inspectorate; Order No. 19 MTIC-CAB of 13 August 1977 concerning the attributions of the Abidjan independent labour inspection service; Order No. 32 MTIC-DCSR of 23 September 1978 establishing the regional labour and employment directorates; and Circular No. 390/MTAS/CAB of 17 March 1980 concerning the supervision of the activities of labour inspectors.
