The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

Articles 11 and 16 of the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to supply with its next report detailed information on the size of the staff of the labour inspectorate and on the transport facilities (particularly the number of vehicles) supplied to inspectors. It also requests the Government to indicate the extent to which the measures that is has taken up to the present time make it possible for inspectors to regularly inspect all the workplaces subject to supervision (indicate particularly, the number of workplaces visited and the total number of workplaces liable to inspection).

Articles 20 and 21. The Committee notes with regret that the last annual inspection report transmitted to the International Labour Office is for the period 1973-74. It notes, however, the assurance given by the Government that in the future annual inspection reports will be published and transmitted to the Office within the time-limits set forth in the Convention. The Committee once again expresses the hope that the Government will take the necessary measures in this respect.
