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

Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes from the Government's most recent report that annual reports of the Ministry of Labour and Industrial Relations have already been compiled for the period July 1987 to June 1994, but that at the end of the financial year 1994-95 it has been decided that the annual reports should also include the period July 1994-95. The Government states further that as soon as the data is compiled the annual reports will be published. The Committee wishes to reiterate its previous comments that the compilation and publication, with a reasonable time after the end of the year to which they relate and in any case within 12 months, of annual inspection reports under Article 20 of the Convention, and containing all the information listed in Article 21, are an essential means of ascertaining whether workplaces are inspected as often and thoroughly as necessary, in accordance with Article 16. It hopes the Government will not fail to send the required reports soon and regularly thereafter.
