Article 5 of the Convention. The Committee notes that no specific measures have yet been taken to give effect to this provision of the Convention. It recalls that, as early as 1984, the Government informed the Conference Committee that it had taken the necessary steps to give statutory effect to the practice of co-operation between the various inspection services on the one hand, and between the inspectors and the employers and workers on the other. The Committee hopes that these measures will be taken shortly.

Article 6. The Committee notes from the Government's report that the Labour Inspection Regulations which, inter alia, guarantee stability of employment to labour inspectors and makes them independent of changes of government and of improper external influences, have been approved by Ministerial Resolution No. 346/87 of 26 November 1987, but that they are not yet in force. It trusts that these Regulations will soon be adopted, and requests the Government to provide a copy of them.

Articles 10, 11 and 16. With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes the information supplied by the Government, to the effect that owing to the budgetary restrictions prompted by the economic crisis it has not been possible to increase the number of labour inspection staff and that there has so far been no improvement in the working conditions of inspectors. It hopes that the Government, in accordance with its assurances to the Conference Committee in 1984, will take certain measures to remedy the difficulties, so as to enable labour inspectors to perform their duties effectively.

Articles 20 and 21. The Committee notes with regret that since the ratification of the Convention, no reports on the work of the labour inspection services have yet been published. Recalling the importance it attaches to the publication of annual inspection reports, the Committee can only urge the Government once again to take all the necessary measures to give effect to these Articles of the Convention. It hopes that in future, in accordance with the repeated assurances of the Government, annual reports containing information on all the subjects listed at Article 21 will be published and transmitted to the ILO within the time-limits set forth in Article 20. [The Government is asked to supply full particulars to the Conference at its 77th Session.]
