Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1992, publiée 79ème session CIT (1992)

The Committee notes the information provided concerning Article 3, paragraphs 1(b) and (c) and 2, of the Convention.

Article 2, paragraph 2. Please describe labour inspection arrangements in mining and transport undertakings.

Articles 10 and 16. Further to its previous comment, the Committee notes that from the statistics provided it appears that the number of inspectors has dropped considerably since the Government indicated in 1988 in its report on Convention No. 129 that there were 212 nationally plus others in the regions. It would be grateful if the Government would clarify by providing the information requested in the report form relating to these Articles.

Article 11, paragraphs 1(b) and 2. Further to its previous comment, the Committee notes the information provided. It would be grateful if the Government would provide an appreciation of the manner in which this aspect of the Convention is applied, having regard to the need for adequate transport facilities for inspectors in order to meet the requirement in Article 16 that workplaces be inspected as often and as thoroughly as is necessary to ensure the effective application of the relevant legal provisions. Also, please provide copies of regulations authorising the arrangements made for transport facilities such as reimbursement to inspectors for the cost of transport.
