The Committee notes the information provided late by the Government in reply to its previous comments and the report covering the period ending in June 2004.

Development of legislative machinery concerning the organization and functioning of the labour administration. The Committee notes with interest that Executive Decrees Nos. 01-338 and 01-339 of 28 October 2001 respectively determining the duties of the Minister of Labour and Social Security and the structure of the central administration of the Ministry of Labour and Social Security, give effect in law to many provisions of the Convention. It would be grateful if the Government would continue to provide information on any new development of a legislative, regulatory or administrative nature relating to the subjects covered by each of the provisions of the Convention.

Practical operation of the system of labour administration. The Committee requests the Government also to communicate on a regular basis, with a view to illustrating as much as possible the manner in which the abovementioned legal provisions are applied in practice, and as required by Part IV of the report form, extracts of any reports or other periodic information presented by the principal labour administration bodies as referred to by Paragraph 20 of Recommendation No. 158 complementing the Convention, as well as the specific information requested under the following Articles by the report form, namely:

Article 4 of the Convention, on the measures taken to ensure that the system of labour administration works effectively and that the functions and responsibilities assigned to it are properly coordinated;

Article 5, on the legislative or practical measures taken, if necessary, at regional, local and sectoral levels with a view to ensuring consultation, cooperation and negotiation on a tripartite basis or limited to the social partners, in the context of the system of labour administration;

Article 6, on the manner on which effect is given in practice to each of its provisions;

Article 9, on the means at the disposal of the competent public labour administration bodies to ensure that parastatal agencies and any regional or local agencies to which particular labour administration activities are delegated, are operating in accordance with national laws and are adhering to the objectives assigned to them; and

Article 10, on the material means and the financial resources allocated to the staff of the labour administration system.

Gradual extension of the functions of the labour administration system to non-wage workers. Noting the information provided by the Government under Article 7 of the Convention, the Committee invites it to review this provision, the meaning and flexibility of which are highlighted by paragraphs 128-137 of its 1997 General Survey on labour administration, and requests it to identify any cases where it appears that the categories of workers mentioned enjoy or may enjoy the benefits provided by any of the competent bodies in the labour administration system.
