The Committee notes the Government’s report received in October 2008 containing a partial reply to its previous comments. In order to assess more accurately the effect given to the Convention in law and in practice, it requests the Government to supplement the information provided on the following points.

Legislation. The Committee once again requests the Government to provide a copy of the Ministry of Labour and Social Development Orders Nos 1035 of 9 September 1999, 73 of 24 October 2002, 909-K and 378-RK of 29 October 1999, 143 of 9 July 2002 and Act No. 53-FZ of 20 May 2002 and to provide in its report information on the substance of the provisions of each of these texts. Furthermore, the Committee asks the Government to provide a copy of the Statute of the Federal Labour and Employment Service, approved by the Ordinance of the Government of the Russian Federation of 30 June 2004, No. 324, which has still not been received by the ILO.

The Committee would also be grateful if the Government would supply a copy of any document of a legislative, regulatory or administrative nature relating to the matters covered by the Convention.

Articles 8 and 10 of the Convention. Composition and geographical distribution of the labour inspection staff. Referring to its previous direct request, the Committee once again asks the Government to indicate the proportion of women in the labour inspection staff at all levels of responsibility and to indicate, where appropriate, the special tasks assigned to men and women inspectors, respectively, as well as the geographical distribution of labour inspectors, the number of workplaces liable to inspection and the number of persons employed therein.

Articles 16 and 19. Coverage, frequency and thoroughness of inspections. In the absence of any report from the Federal Labour Inspectorate, the Government is asked to provide any available statistics and other data concerning the inspection of workplaces throughout the country (number, categories of private and publicly managed enterprises, activities exercised and the number of workers occupied therein, as well as types and frequency of inspections).

The Committee once again requests the Government to provide copies of inspection reports for publicly managed organizations and private establishments.

Articles 20 and 21. Publication and communication to the ILO of the annual report on labour inspection activities. The Committee notes that the report of the Federal Labour Inspectorate for 2007, indicated as being attached to the Government’s report for 2008, has not been received by the ILO. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide the above report, together with any subsequent annual reports, and if it would inform the ILO of the manner in which such reports are published.

Labour inspection activities relating to child labour. With reference to its 2007 observation under the Minimum Age Convention, 1973 (No. 138), the Committee would be grateful if the Government would take appropriate measures to ensure that the annual report of the Federal Labour Inspectorate contains statistics on activities to enforce the legal provisions pertaining to child labour in industrial and commercial workplaces. It also requests the Government to indicate the measures undertaken to this effect, any difficulties encountered and the progress achieved.

The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.
