The Committee takes note of the information contained in the Government's last report and the observations made by the Confederation of Turkish Employers' Associations (TISK) and the Confederation of Turkish Trade Unions (TURK-IS).

The Committee notes the information, provided by the Government in reply to its previous observation, on the working of the inspection services and the number of contraventions reported. The Committee also takes note of the allegations made by the TURK-IS of inadequate monitoring of the application of the Convention in terms of the number and nature of the inspections, which do not cover certain categories of workers, in particular domestic workers and illegal workers. The Government is asked to provide its own comments on the allegations made by the TURK-IS.

To help it assess the manner in which effect is given to the provisions of the Convention, the Committee requests the Government to provide detailed information on the practical application of the Convention, in accordance with points III and V of the report form, and to indicate, where appropriate, whether courts of law or other tribunals have given decisions involving questions of principle relating to the application of the Convention, in accordance with point IV.
