2. The Committee noted that the Advisory Labour Commission would meet with a view to discussing the revision of labour texts, and that the Committee's comments will possibly be taken into account in the draft text setting out the safety and hygiene rules. The Committee requests the Government to specify whether this draft decree is the same as the one which was submitted by the Government in 1982 for an opinion by the Committee.

3. The Committee once again draws the Government's attention to the fact that no measures have been taken to date in order to ensure application of Articles 2 and 4 of the Convention (prohibition of the sale, hire, transfer in any other manner and exhibition of machines without appropriate guards; enumeration of the dangerous parts of machines which must be guarded; formal designation of the persons on whom rests the obligation to apply this prohibition), Article 10 (information and instructions to be given to workers) and Article 11 (prohibition on using a machine without the protective guards being in position and operative). The Committee requests the Government to indicate the measures taken or envisaged to ensure application of these Articles of the Convention.
