1. The Committee notes the information contained in the Government’s latest report, as well as the statistical information contained in the report for 2004, issued by the Division of Occupational Safety and Health.

2. Article 4 of the Convention. Obligations of the vendor, the person letting out on hire or transferring the machinery, the exhibitor or the manufacturer. The Committee notes that the Government’s report contains no specific indication concerning measures giving effect to this Article. It recalls that the obligation to prohibit the sale, letting out on hire, or transferring of the machinery in any other manner, and the exhibiting of machinery without appropriate guards rests with the vendor, the person letting out on hire or transferring the machinery in any other manner or the exhibitor and, where appropriate, on their respective agents, as well as on the manufacturer when he/she sells machinery, lets it out on hire, transfers it in any other manner or exhibits it. The Committee hopes that the Government will indicate in its next report the measures taken or envisaged to give full effect to the provisions of this Article.

3. Part V of the report form. The Committee notes the statistical information concerning interventions by the Division of Occupational Safety and Health during 2004 in various establishments. The Committee requests the Government to continue to provide in its next report statistical information covering several years to enable the Committee to follow the progress.
