The Committee notes the Government’s report. It recalls its general observation of 1988 reminding governments that each Member which ratifies this Convention undertakes to communicate, with its reports, the latest statistical information relating to the number and classification of accidents occurring to persons occupied on work within the scope of this Convention. It had further indicated that according to the report form on the Convention, in addition to such information, governments were requested to report in as much detail as possible on the number of persons occupied in the building industry and covered by the statistics. The Committee notes that such statistics were provided with the Government’s report in 1991 and 1997, but that its report in 2001 does not provide similar information. It would be grateful if the Government would provide the information required by Article 6 of the Convention with its next report.
