Articles 10 and 11 of the Convention. Resources of the labour inspection services. The Committee notes with interest that, according to the Government, seven out of nine inspection have been provided with vehicles, thus facilitating field visits. It notes however that, according to the Government, the difficulties relating to the application of the Convention are attributable to the low level of human, material and logistical resources. The Committee requests the Government to continue to take the necessary measures to ensure that the inspection services have the necessary resources to discharge their functions effectively. Please keep the Office informed of any progress made or difficulties encountered in this respect.
Articles 20 and 21. Annual report on the work of the inspection services. The Committee notes that no annual inspection report has been provided and that the Government’s report does not provide statistical information on labour inspection activities and their results, the geographical distribution of industrial and commercial establishments covered under the Convention and the workers employed therein. With reference to its general observations of 2009 and 2010, the Committee once again reminds the Government of the importance of the basic information requested in Articles 10(a)(i) and (ii) and 21 of the Convention for the evaluation of the operation of the labour inspection services and to establish useful means for improving its effectiveness. The Committee requests the Government to ensure that measures are taken to enable the main inspection authorities to fulfil the requirement to publish and communicate an annual inspection report in the format and within the time frame stipulated in Article 20, and containing information on each of the subjects set out in Article 21. Please keep the Office informed of any progress made or difficulties encountered in this regard.
The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.
