Observation (CEACR) - adopted 1992, published 79th ILC session (1992)

Labour Inspection Convention, 1947 (No. 81) - Libya (Ratification: 1971)

Articles 20 and 21 of the Convention. The Committee notes the discussion which took place in the Conference Committee in 1991. The Government representative referred to administrative difficulties, but said that the necessary information had been collected: its intention was to report within the prescribed time-limits. The Conference Committee expressed great concern that for several years the Government had not sent annual inspection reports as required by the Convention.

The Committee notes once more that the Government's reports on the activities of the labour inspection services have not been received. In the absence also of a report in the form approved by the Governing Body on the Convention, the Committee is unable to appreciate the manner in which the Convention is applied. The Committee once more expresses the hope that the Government will ensure that the Convention is fully observed, and that annual inspection reports containing information on the work of the labour inspection services, including statistics on the subjects listed under Article 21, will be published and transmitted in accordance with Article 20.

[The Government is asked to supply full particulars to the Conference at its 79th Session.]
