Also referring to its observation, the Committee requests the Government to supply further information on the following points.

Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes the additional information supplied by the Government with regard to the division of the IDICT (Institute for the Development and Inspection of Conditions of Work) into two bodies: the General Labour Inspectorate (IGT) and the Institute for Occupational Safety, Hygiene and Health (ISHST). It notes that the IGT is the service which enforces the legislation concerning conditions of work, employment, unemployment and the collection of social security contributions. It also notes that the ISHST is the central authority responsible for the implementation of occupational health, safety and welfare policies at national level and has administrative and financial independence. Also noting that Legislative Decree No. 211/2006 amending the Organic Act of the Ministry of Labour and Social Solidarity has established the Authority for Conditions of Work (ACT), which is the umbrella organization for the IGT and ISHST, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would supply information on the impact of this restructuring on the working of the labour inspectorate.

With reference to its previous comments, the Committee hopes that the Government will ensure that an annual report on inspection activities in the autonomous regions of the Azores and Madeira containing information on the subjects covered by Article 21(a)–(g) will be published and sent to the ILO in the form and according to the deadlines prescribed by Article 20.
