Article 17, paragraph 1, of the Convention. In reply to the Committee's request for information on measures to ensure the safety of road vehicle operators, the Government states that section 6 of Road Traffic Ordinance No. 49/58 makes it illegal to use a motor vehicle which does not meet the rules concerning construction, weight, equipment, usage and age applicable to the category of vehicle concerned. It adds that all vehicles registered by the Road Transport Department must conform to national or international safety standards. The Committee asks the Government to supply with its next report the texts or summaries of regulations and standards applicable in this area.
