Articles 3 and 4 of the Convention. Legislation and consultation with the most representative organizations of employers and workers concerned on the measures to be taken to give effect to the provisions of the Convention. With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its report on general occupational safety and health provisions, to which it has already referred, which give very limited effect to the Convention. The Committee notes in particular that the Bill on occupational safety and health and the preliminary draft regulations for the safe use of asbestos, the forthcoming adoption of which has been noted by the Committee since 1994, have still not been adopted. The Committee therefore urged the Government to make efforts as soon as possible to consult the most representative organizations of employers and workers concerned on the measures to be taken to give effect to the provisions of the Convention and to provide detailed information on the outcome of these consultations. The Committee notes with regret that the Government has not provided the requested information, which appears to show that the consultations envisaged in Article 4 of the Convention have not been held on the measures to be taken to give effect to the provisions of the Convention, and that the legislation referred to previously has not been adopted. The Committee recalls that all laws and regulations have to be the subject of consultation and periodic review in the light of technical progress and advances in scientific knowledge, in accordance with Article 3(2) of the Convention, and the subject of consultations under the terms of Article 4 of the Convention. The Committee once again urges the Government, in accordance with Article 3(2), and within the framework of consultations with the most representative organizations of employers and workers concerned, as required by Article 4, to review the legislation to bring it into conformity with the Convention, including in relation to exposure limits which, in accordance with Article 15(2), shall be fixed and periodically reviewed and updated in the light of technological progress and advances in technological and scientific knowledge.
[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2017.]
