The Committee notes that in the interests of increasing the capacity of the social security agencies, particularly the Insurance, Occupational Accident, Sickness and Maternity Office (OFATMA), the Ministry of Social Affairs convened a discussion forum for directors of the social security agencies. Thanks to these discussions, the weaknesses of the social security institutions were pinpointed and a number of solutions identified for enabling them to function properly. Although data on the incidence of the occupational diseases referred to in the Convention are not yet available at the Ministry of Social Affairs, the Labour Inspection Service is being restructured and given fresh impetus, so it should be possible to obtain a picture of how effect is given to the Convention in practice. The Committee welcomes the Government’s efforts and invites it to continue to keep the Committee informed of the difficulties met in practice in operating the mechanisms for recognition of occupational diseases and compensating them.
