Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1995, Publicación: 83ª reunión CIT (1996)

The Committee notes the Government's first report.

Article 3 of the Convention. The Committee draws the Government's attention to the need for consulting the representative organizations of employers and workers with regard to the statistics covered by the Convention so as to take into account their needs and to ensure their cooperation, and asks it to supply information on such consultations.

Article 5. The Committee requests the Government to supply the published statistics to the ILO as soon as practicable in accordance with this Article, for instance: "Isle of Man Census Report 1991 Volume 1 (1991) and Volume (2)" (Article 8); monthly Retail Price Indices (All items and food group) (Article 12); and "Isle of Man Family Expenditure Survey 1988/89" (1991) and any similar subsequent reports.

Article 8. The Committee hopes that the Government will include the "availability criterion" in the definition of unemployment in the questionnaire for the next census in order to fulfil fully the requirements of this Article, even if it retains, for historical comparisons, the one based on two criteria only.

Article 9(2). The Committee notes that the Government has not considered it appropriate to undertake a survey on time-rates of wages and normal hours of work but that this will be considered in the future. It asks the Government to supply information on any development in this regard.

Article 14. The Committee asks the Government to indicate whether data relating to workdays lost from occupational injuries are available and any measures taken to compile such data. If a standard form exists for the purpose of obligatory reporting of occupational injuries and diseases, please send a copy.

Article 15. The Committee asks the Government to supply more substantial methodological information, particularly with regard to reporting and data collection procedures as to industrial disputes.

Article 16(4). The Committee requests the Government to continue to provide information on the statistics covered by Articles 7 and 11, which were excluded from the acceptance of obligations, including any statistics compiled and the methodological descriptions.
