Articles 20 and 21 of the Convention. Further to its previous observations, the Committee notes the statistical information provided in the Government's report and the Annual Report of the Federal Ministry of Employment, Labour and Productivity for 1989. However, this does not seem to give a full picture of the application of the Convention as required: in particular the statistics contained in the 1989 Annual Report do not cover workplaces liable to inspection and the number of workers employed therein, in conformity with Article 21(c), and refer only indirectly to laws and regulations relevant to the work of the inspection service.

The Committee has also noted that on the Government's invitation the ILO organised a tripartite mission to evaluate its labour inspection system, which took place in 1991. It hopes that the Government's next report will include full information on all measures taken or proposed in the light of the mission, especially in relation to the preparation and publication of an annual inspection report in accordance with the Convention and to the other matters raised in a direct request.
