The Committee notes the information supplied in reply to its earlier comments.

Article 3(2) of the Convention. The Committee notes that section 8(e) of the draft Rules of the General Labour Inspectorate forwarded by the Government would give inspectors powers to intervene in labour disputes. It trusts that such duties would not - if this provision is adopted - interfere with inspectors' primary duties under the Convention. The Government might wish to consider the matter further in this light.

Article 12(1)(c)(iv). The Committee notes with interest that the draft Decree provided by the Government would give inspectors the necessary power to take samples of substances for analysis. It hopes the Decree will be issued soon and that the next report will include details.

Articles 10 and 16. The Committee notes that the Government has decided, instead of opening new regional offices of the labour inspectorate, to raise the remuneration of the labour inspectors. The Government reports that currently 14 of the 18 departments of the country are covered by the labour inspectorate. The Committee asks the Government to indicate in its next report what further steps are being taken to ensure that the labour inspectorate is able to discharge its functions throughout the territory.

Articles 11(2) and 13. Please supply a copy of the Manual de Viáticos referred to in an earlier report and requested in the Committee's previous comments.

Article 14. The Committee recalls that section 435 of the Labour Code and section 6 of Legislative Decree No. 39 provide for the notification of industrial accidents but makes no reference to industrial diseases. Please supply a copy of any amending legislation or, if none exists, indicate what measures are being considered to give effect to this Article.

Article 15(a). The Committee notes that section 13 of the draft Rules of the General Labour Inspectorate would give effect to this Article of the Convention. It hopes that the Government will soon report that the draft has been adopted and asks that a copy of the adopted provisions be sent.

Article 17(2). The Committee notes that section 8(d) and (s) of the draft appears to give a discretion to labour inspectors to give advice as foreseen in the Convention. It hopes the Government will provide further details.

Articles 20 and 21. The Committee notes the data supplied in terms of Article 21 (except for (a) laws and regulations relevant to the work of the inspection service and (g) statistics of occupational diseases) for the years 1983-87. The Committee recalls that such data should be published annually and forwarded to the Office within three months of their publication. It hopes the Government will ensure that the requirements of these Articles are met in future.
