With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes the statistical information provided by the Government in its report as regards the number of foreign workers employed in Saint Lucia. It notes, however, that the report does not supply copies of Acts Nos 5, 12, 13 and 14 of 2001 promulgating special agreements concluded with CARICOM and OECD countries, as well as with Canada in order to facilitate reciprocity were transposed into national legislation. The Committee therefore invites the Government to provide the above copies with its next report and to continue to supply with future reports statistical information on the manner in which national, as well as foreign workers and their dependants, benefit from compensation in case of occupational accidents.
