Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2005, publiée 95ème session CIT (2006)

Referring to its observation, the Committee requests the Government also to provide in its next report information on the following points.

1. Labour inspection staff and training of labour inspectors. The Committee notes the Government’s statement concerning the admission and training of new labour inspectors, as well as the implementation of retraining for serving labour inspectors. It would be grateful if the Government would provide information on the total number of labour inspectors and the geographical distribution of the inspection staff (Article 10 of the Convention). Please also provide detailed information on the content and duration of, and the number of participants receiving, initial and further training, in particular concerning child labour. Please also describe the measures taken with a view to training inspectors in the identification of occupational risks (Article 7).

2. Annual inspection report. The Committee regrets to note that no annual inspection report has been communicated to the ILO since that of 1990. It hopes that the Government will take the measures necessary to ensure that, in the future, the annual report containing the information required by Article 21 of the Convention will be published and transmitted to the ILO in the form and within the deadlines prescribed by Article 20.
