The Committee notes with interest the creation of the tripartite advisory council on policies relating to labour inspection and social security, which is responsible, most notably, for promoting legislative development in respect of the prevention of occupational hazards and for coordinating the activities of bodies or institutions involved in the improvement of working conditions and the working environment. The Committee, however, draws the Government’s attention to the following points.

Article 4, paragraph 3(h), of the Convention. Dangerous cargo and ballast. In reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes with regret that no measures have been adopted to prevent occupational accidents in the handling of dangerous cargo and ballast. The Committee therefore requests the Government, once again, to take the necessary measures to bring legislation and practice into line with the provisions of this Article.

Article 6. Inspection. In its comments made in 2001, the Committee asked the Government to take the necessary measures to ensure the proper application of the provisions of the Convention. In its report, the Government expresses its willingness to allocate additional resources to the labour inspection and social security services, both of which are considered strategic services. The Committee requests the Government to indicate, in its next report, any progress made in this respect.
