The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. The Committee notes the observations presented by the Inter Confederal Committee of Costa Rica (CICC) alleging non-observance by the Government of Costa Rica of eight Conventions ratified by Costa Rica, including Convention No. 81. The allegations of the Inter Confederal Committee relate to the following: (i) absence of adequate training of labour inspectors for the performance of their duties (Article 7, paragraph 3, of the Convention); (ii) insufficient number of labour inspectors (Article 10); (iii) insufficient material support (Article 11); (iv) delays in enforcement proceedings (Article 17); and (v) absence of publication of the reports (Article 20).

The Committee hopes that the Government will supply a detailed report on the application of the Convention as well as its comments on the allegations by the Inter Confederal Committee of Costa Rica.
