Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 2015, publiée 105ème session CIT (2016)

Repetition

The Committee notes the indication by the Government that the United Kingdom no longer provides grant-in-aid to the Government of Anguilla in an effort to ensure greater economic and political autonomy to the territory. It also notes that the territory has no responsibility for its economic development, social progress and employment policies. The Committee requests the Government to provide a copy of the legal provisions relating to the status of the territory as described in the report and its impact on the application of the Convention, and give, in particular, details on the arrangements made between the Government of the United Kingdom and the Government of Anguilla regarding the allocation to the labour inspectorate, the human resources and financial and material means necessary for its functioning.

The Committee observes that for more than 15 years, no new information had been received at the ILO concerning measures undertaken in order to give effect in law and in practice to the Convention, and that the only information contained in the report is that labour inspectors attend all training programmes in labour inspection and occupational health and safety organized by the ILO subregional office. The Committee hopes that the Government will communicate in its next report, as detailed information as possible on the application of each of the provisions of the Convention as well as copy of relevant legal texts and available statistics on the labour inspection activities performed during the period covered by the report.
