The Committee notes with interest Decree No. 83/996 of 7 March 1996 which provides for the establishment of the National Occupational Health and Safety Council responsible for preparing and proposing plans, programmes and national campaigns for occupational safety and health and the improvement of working conditions and for other activities for the prevention of occupational accidents with the participation of Employers' and Workers' representatives (Article 8 of the Convention).

Article 4, paragraph 3(h). The Committee notes that no special measures have been adopted to give effect to this provision of the Convention. It trusts that the Government will be in a position to indicate in a future report that prescriptions have been laid down which provide a sound basis for the prevention of occupational accidents in the handling of dangerous cargo and ballast, and asks the Government to report on any progress made in this respect.
