The Committee has taken note of the Government's report and of the information supplied to the Conference Committee in 1990.

Articles 1 and 17 of the Convention. In its previous comments, the Committee noted that measures had not yet been adopted to give effect to the Convention in agriculture, forestry, road and rail transport and shipping.

The Commission noted that the Government was going to hold consultations with the ministries and sectors concerned in order to obtain their views, after which the Tripartite National Advisory Committee on Labour would consider the matter.

The Committee notes that the Government's latest report does not contain any information on this question. Since it has been the subject of comments for several years and assurances have been given by the Government on several occasions, the Committee hopes that the necessary action will at last be taken to ensure the guarding of machinery in the sectors concerned and that the Government will soon supply specific information on the progress made to that end.
