The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

The Committee notes with interest the creation of the tripartite Co-ordination Group on Occupational Safety and Workplace Environment Conditions by Executive Resolution No. 765/92 of 30 September 1992. It further notes the draft Bill creating the National Occupational Safety Commission, in particular, Chapter V of this Bill which provides for the creation of occupational safety and health services in all enterprises with over 99 workers. The Committee hopes that the legislation necessary for the full application of the Convention will be adopted in the near future and that it will provide for the formulation and periodical review of a national policy on occupational health services, in accordance with Article 2 of the Convention. The Government is requested to supply information, in its next report, on the progress made in this regard.
