1. The Committee notes the information contained in the Government’s report and notes that the report contains almost no relevant information in reply to the observations made to the Government in 2000, 2003, 2004 and 2005. The Committee therefore urges the Government to reply to the following questions.

2. Article 6, paragraph 1, and Part IV of the report form. Appropriate measures taken by the inspection services and the application of the Convention in practice. The Committee notes that compliance with the laws that are in force is ensured by the labour inspection services by means of visual inspections, where necessary, accompanied by instruments to measure the levels of noise and temperature. Recommendations and indications of appropriate corrective measures are proposed to improve working conditions and the working environment. The Committee also notes that the changes which have to be made to improve working conditions and the working environment depend on the gravity of the risks that exist, and that the necessary measures have to be adopted within a specific time frame (2, 7, 15, 30, 45 days) and that subsequent inspections are carried out once this period has ended. With regard to the application of the Convention in practice, the Committee notes the Government’s indications that the infringements detected relate to noisy environments, lack of illumination and ventilation, excessive heat and the use of inadequate personal protective equipment. The Committee requests the Government to provide information in its next report on the manner in which effect is given in practice to the provisions of the Convention, including information on the employed persons covered by the relevant legislation and the number and nature of the infringements reported, as well as extracts from inspection reports to enable the Committee to assess the effectiveness of the supervision carried out.
