The Committee notes the Government’s report and the documents attached. Referring to its previous comments, it requests the Government to provide in its next report additional information on the following points.

Collaboration between employers and workers. Please describe the measures taken or envisaged in accordance with Article 5(b) of the Convention in order to encourage collaboration between the labour inspection services and the employers or workers or their organizations with a view, among other things, to the implementation of preventive occupational safety measures.

Publication of an annual report. The Committee notes that since 2001 no annual report on the work of the inspection services has been communicated to the International Labour Office. It points out in this regard the importance of publishing and communicating regularly to the International Labour Office an annual report that complies in both form and substance with the provisions of Articles 20 and 21 of the Convention. The Committee invites the Government to ensure that such a report is regularly published and communicated to the International Labour Office.
