The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government concerning its previous comments on Article 6, paragraph 2, Article 12, paragraph 2, and Article 18, paragraph 4, of the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to supply further information on the following points:

Articles 14 and 21. See comments under Articles 10 and 16 of Convention No. 81, as follows:

Articles 10 and 16. Further to its previous comment, the Committee notes that from the statistics provided it appears that the number of inspectors has dropped considerably since the Government indicated in 1988 in its report on Convention No. 129 that there were 212 nationally plus others in the regions. It would be grateful if the Government would clarify by providing the information requested in the report form relating to these Articles.

Article 15. See comments under Article 11 of Convention No. 81, as follows:

Article 11, paragraphs 1(b) and 2. Further to its previous comment, the Committee notes the information provided. It would be grateful if the Government would provide an appreciation of the manner in which this aspect of the Convention is applied, having regard to the need for adequate transport facilities for inspectors in order to meet the requirement in Article 16 that workplaces be inspected as often and as thoroughly as is necessary to ensure the effective application of the relevant legal provisions. Also, please provide copies of regulations authorising the arrangements made for transport facilities such as reimbursement to inspectors for the cost of transport.

Article 16, paragraph 2. In its report, the Government did not indicate the legal provisions which prohibit labour inspectors from entering the private home of the operator of an agricultural undertaking except with the consent of the operator or with a special authorisation issued by the competent authority. Please supply this information.

Article 17. The Committee once again requests the Government to indicate the measures and legal provisions adopted to give effect to the preventive functions set out in this Article.

Article 19, paragraph 2. The Committee once again requests the Government to supply information, if it is available, on the participation of inspectors in inquiries into the causes of work-related accidents and into the most serious cases of occupational diseases.

Articles 26 and 27. See comments under Articles 20 and 21 of Convention No. 81, as follows:

Articles 20 and 21. The Committee notes that no annual report on the activities of the inspection services has been received by the ILO since that for 1984, produced following a direct contacts mission. The Committee also notes that further technical cooperation has been provided by the ILO in relation to labour inspection. In its comments, the Committee has for years expressed its hope that certain reorganisations and legislative initiatives would remedy the difficulty posed by the conduct of some inspections by provincial authorities and make possible publication of the necessary annual report by the federal authorities. In the absence of the practical information called for by the Convention, it is impossible to evaluate the application of the Convention or to determine what further measures need to be taken in order to ensure that workplaces are inspected as often and as thoroughly as necessary in compliance with Article 16. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate the measures proposed in this regard.
