Articles 1, 2, 3 and 5 of the Convention. The Committee notes the Government’s reply indicating that regulations giving effect to these Articles are in the final phase of preparation, and that the new regulations will be a revision of previous laws. The Committee hopes that the Government will take into account the provisions of the Convention in drafting these new regulations, and requests the Government to provide copies of them once they are adopted.

Article 6. Observance of the regulations prescribed, after consultation with the employers’ and workers’ organizations. The Committee notes the Government’s response indicating the work undertaken by the tripartite committee specializing in safety and health, including the drafting of regulations on the general application of sections 281–291 of the Labour Code (No. 93-08, 12 May 2008), a copy of which has been attached to the Government’s report. The Committee requests the Government to continue to provide information on the work done by the above committee and to send copies of the regulations as soon as they have been adopted.

Article 7 and Part V of the report form. Application in practice. In comments that it has been making for several years, the Committee has noted that the Government’s reports do not contain the statistical data required by Article 7 of the Convention on cases of mortality or any information on the application of the Convention in practice, as required by Part V of the report form for this Convention. The Committee notes the Government’s response in its latest report indicating that efforts are underway by the central department with a view to collecting this information. The Committee reiterates its request that the Government provide the abovementioned information in its next report.
