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 Government is requested to supply information, in its next report, on the progress made in this regard.
