Also referring to its observation, the Committee requests the Government to communicate, in so far as it specifically concerns the application of the present Convention, the information requested in its direct request under Convention No. 81 with regard to the organization, functioning and resources of the labour inspectorate.

In addition, the Committee once again requests the Government to indicate whether there has been any follow-up to the conclusions and recommendations of the surveys and studies concerning the rural sector, which it mentioned in its 1996 report, and, if so, to provide any relevant information.

Furthermore, the Government is requested to clarify whether it is planned, in accordance with Article 6, paragraph 2, of the Convention, to assign to labour inspectors in agriculture advisory or enforcement functions regarding legal provisions relating to the living conditions of workers and their families.
