The Committee notes the information provided by the Government in reply to its previous comments. The Committee notes with interest the adoption of the Ministerial Resolution of 2000 on industrial health in the workplace, which supplements the Regulations of 1966. With regard to the provisions of the Convention, and particularly Article 5(III), the Committee notes section 19(5) of the Ministerial Resolution, which provides that workers exposed to lead in its various compounds shall undergo specific examinations.

Article 6. With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes that the Occupational Safety and Health Directorate has prepared a form for the notification of occupational diseases, which it submitted for approval to the National Health and Safety Council. According to the Government, this form will be used for enterprises to notify cases of lead poisoning when they occur so that the statistics envisaged in Article 7 of the Convention can be compiled. The Committee requests the Government to indicate whether the above form has been adopted and, if so, to provide a copy to the International Labour Office. The Committee also hopes that the Government will be able to compile statistics on lead poisoning, which should refer to both the morbidity and mortality caused by lead poisoning.
