The Committee takes note of the information supplied by the Government in its report, concerning Article 26, paragraph 2, of the Convention.

Article 21 of the Convention (review of long-term benefits). The Committee notes from the Government's reply, that there was no readjustment of benefits between 1985 and 1989. It recalls the importance it attaches in the present economic context to the proper application of this provision of the Convention which specifies that the amount of long-term benefits paid in the event of industrial injury shall be reviewed following substantial changes in the general levels of earnings where these result from substantial changes in the cost of living. The Committee therefore hopes that the Government's next report will contain information on the measures taken in this respect as well as the statistical data requested in the report form adopted by the Governing Body on trends in the cost of living index and index of earnings during the period covered by the report, and on the adjustment of benefits (average benefit per beneficiary and benefit for standard beneficiary) during the same period.
