Articles 10, 11, 16, 20 and 21 of the Convention. With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes that the National Labour Inspectorate lacks the necessary human and material resources to fully apply these provisions of the Convention, but that the Government is still prepared to install a computerized data processing system in the Records Department of the Ministry of Labour and Social Security, with trained personnel, so that all the necessary information can be compiled for the annual report of the labour inspection services. The Committee also notes the annual report of the National Labour Inspectorate which the Government was able to provide. The report contains only part of the information requested under Article 21 of the Convention, namely, statistics of inspection visits (paragraph (d)) and statistics of violations (paragraph (e)).

The Committee recalls that, under the Convention, the number of inspectors and the facilities made available to them must be sufficient to secure the effective discharge of their duties and, in particular, to ensure that workplaces are inspected as frequently and thoroughly as is necessary, and that full annual reports are published regularly. The Committee trusts that the measures under consideration will be taken in the very near future so that annual inspection reports containing all the information requested in Article 21 can be published and sent to the International Labour Office within the period laid down in Article 20.
