The Committee notes the brief information provided regarding the application of Articles 14 and 19(f) of the Convention including references made to a series of laws and regulations which were not attached to the report and that, following a technical assistance mission to Niger in 2010 after the ratification of, inter alia, this Convention, it was agreed to develop a National Policy on Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) and a new comprehensive OSH law; and to set up a National OSH Institute and a National Council for the Prevention of Occupational Hazards. The Committee welcomes the efforts to improve the application of the Convention, and hopes that the Government will soon be able to report on progress in this respect. To enable a full evaluation of the application of the Convention in the country, the Committee requests the Government to transmit copies of all relevant legislation, existing as well as newly adopted texts, as well as other documents adopted to ensure a full application of the Convention with its next report.

Part V of the report form. Application in practice. The Committee requests the Government to provide a general appreciation of the manner in which the Convention is applied in the country, and attach extracts from inspection reports, and, where such statistics exist, information on the number of workers covered by the legislation, the number and nature of the contraventions reported, the number, nature and cause of accidents reported.
