Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2001, Publicación: 90ª reunión CIT (2002)

Referring also to its observation, the Committee requests the Government to supply supplementary information on the following matters.

1. Legislation on industrial health and safety. The Committee notes the Government’s announcement in its latest report of a preliminary draft legislative decree on industrial hygiene, safety and health.

2. ILO technical assistance and training of labour inspectors. The Committee notes that the lack of financial resources prevents implementation of the programmes on initial and in-service training of labour inspectors and that a request for technical assistance in the matter has been addressed to the ILO. It hopes that this application will produce rapid results. In this regard, the Committee emphasizes that technical assistance is subject to measures of a formal nature being carried out with the competent services of the Office and that its effectiveness depends largely on active participation by the Government. The Committee trusts that the Government will demonstrate a firm commitment to work towards considerably improved means and operation of the labour inspection service in order to achieve the objectives of the Convention, that it will promote significant budgetary measures on the part of the competent national authorities to this end and will seek financial resources in an active and focused manner in the framework of international cooperation. The Government is requested to keep the ILO informed of progress in its request for technical assistance for the purpose of training inspection staff and to supply the available information requested in the report form on the Convention under Articles 4, 5, 10, 11, 14, 16 and 19.
