1. The Committee notes the brief information contained in the Government’s report including Decree No. 31/2006/ND-CP dated 29 March 2006 on the organization and operation of inspection in the field of labour, war invalids and social affairs as well as statistical information on the inspection system.

2.  With regard to the question of possible difficulties encountered in the application of the Convention in relation to modern methods of cargo handling, with particular reference to containers, the Committee requests the Government to refer to the general observation that it is making on the Convention at the present session.

3. Parts III and V of the report form. The Committee notes that the statistical data submitted concern inspections systems in enterprises and not in connection with Article 1 of the Convention. The Committee therefore requests the Government to provide further information on the inspection system, its legal basis and on the frequency these inspections are carried out in connection with marking of weight. It also requests the Government to provide extracts from any inspection reports indicating the degree of compliance with the marking of weight requirements, or any other information available on the manner in which effect is given to the Convention in practice.
