1. The Committee notes that the report for the period 1989-91 and the attached inspection reports contain no information on the application of the Convention in the eastern Länder. It would be glad if the Government would provide full information in this regard in its next report.

2. The Committee has noted also that the inspection reports provided under Articles 20 and 21 of the Convention come from the authorities of various individual Länder, but that no general data compiled at the national level has been supplied (such as an annual report on accident prevention prepared by the Federal Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs). It would be grateful if the Government would supply any reports or information of this kind available, together with an up-to-date indication of which authorities are responsible for the application of all aspects of the Convention throughout the country (Part III of the report form).

3. Further to its earlier comments, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would describe the manner in which Article 12(1)(a) of the Convention is applied in practice (exercise by labour inspectors of the power which ought to be conferred on them freely to enter any workplace liable to inspection at any hour of the day or night), any practical difficulties encountered in this respect, and further review of the relevant provisions envisaged.
