Observación (CEACR) - Adopción: 1993, Publicación: 80ª reunión CIT (1993)

Article 6 of the Convention. The Committee notes the Government's explanations provided to the ILO direct contacts mission in May 1992 and in its most recent report, that the solution to the questions raised in the Committee's previous comments is linked to the adoption of the draft statute of the labour inspectors and supervisors prepared several years ago with ILO assistance. It further notes the Government's view that the current economic situation would not stand the heavy financial burden that would result from the adoption of the draft statute, although the Government would continue its efforts to improve the situation progressively and adopt the statute in the context of the restructuring of the public service in general. The Committee once again recalls that the draft statute is based on a study that took account of the economic situation in the country as well as the provisions of the Convention and the need to ensure decent working conditions for inspectors. It endorses the view expressed during the direct contacts mission that labour inspection is of central importance in ensuring the implementation of standards, and it hopes progress will be made in adopting a new statute soon.

In a new direct request, the Committee has once again referred to other important questions related to Articles 10, 11, 16, 20 and 21.
