Article 5(a) of the Convention. Further to its earlier comments, the Committee notes that the Bill to provide for a coordinating body of the various ministries involved in the safety of workers, entitled the Environmental Safety Organisation, has been approved by the Council of Ministers but not yet adopted. It asks the Government to indicate in its next report whether the Bill has become law, and to supply a copy.

Articles 20 and 21. 1. Further to its observation, the Committee notes the report on the activities of the labour inspection service for 1989. The Committee would recall that under Article 20 a report of a general nature on the work of the inspection service must be published and communicated to the ILO each year. Please indicate whether the 1989 report has been published as required.

2. The Committee also notes that incomplete information is provided in the report with respect to the staff of the labour inspection service (Article 21(b)) and that statistics of workplaces liable to inspection and the number of workers employed therein (Article 21(c)) have not been provided. The Committee trusts that in the future reports containing information on all the subjects listed under Article 21, will be published and transmitted to the ILO within the periods laid down in Article 20.
