Article 6, paragraph 1(c), of the Convention. See under Convention No. 81, Article 3, paragraph 1(c), as follows:

Article 3, paragraph 1(c), of the Convention. The Committee notes that the draft of the revised Labour Code to which it referred in its previous comment will shortly be submitted to the competent authorities for adoption. The Committee again expresses the hope that appropriate measures will be taken to give effect to this provision of the Convention which provides that the labour inspectorate must bring to the notice of the competent authority defects or abuses not specifically covered by existing legal provisions. It asks the Government to provide information on any progress made in this regard in its next report.

Articles 15 and 21. The Committee notes from the report that the Government considers that, generally speaking, the Convention is applied satisfactorily. It none the less refers to its comment under Convention No. 81, Articles 11 and 16.

Articles 16, paragraph 2, and 17. Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes that the draft Labour Code referred to in the Government's report seems to take account (in section 232) of Article 16, paragraph 2, of the Convention (conditions for entry to the private home of the operator of an undertaking), but not of Article 17 (association of the labour inspection services in preventive control). It again expresses the hope that appropriate measures will be taken to give effect to these two provisions of the Convention. It asks the Government to indicate any progress made in this respect in its next report.

Articles 26 and 27. See under Convention No. 81, Articles 20 and 21, as follows:

Articles 20 and 21. The Committee notes that a summary of inspection reports for 1990 has been prepared. Further to its previous comments, it again expresses the hope that the Government will take the necessary steps to ensure that annual inspection reports containing information on all the subjects listed at Article 21 are published and transmitted to the International Labour Office within the period laid down in Article 20.
