The Government is asked to indicate whether the functions ascribed by Presidential Decree No. 136 on the Organization of the Services of the Labour Inspectorate in its section 9, entitled "Mandate of the Social Inspection Directorate" are carried out by different public servants from those responsible for the principal functions set out in Article 3, paragraph 1(a), (b) and (c).

Article 8.

Articles 20, paragraph 2, and 21.
