With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes the Government's statement that the Secretary for Occupational Safety and Medicine has shown interest in reinserting anthrax infection into schedule V to the list of occupational diseases appearing in Decree No. 83-080 of 24 January 1979.

The Committee once again hopes that the steps that were announced previously by the Government will result in the near future in the inclusion in the list of occupational diseases appearing in schedule V to the above Decree of anthrax infection and of the work likely to cause it, namely the loading and unloading or transport of merchandise in general, as set out in Article 2 of the Convention. [The Government is asked to report in detail for the period ending 30 June 1991.]
