The Committee notes from the annual report on the work of the labour inspectorate in agriculture that a new system of inspection has been introduced which has permitted to carry out inspections in almost every sector of agriculture in 1995, concentrating on the most serious risks relating to physical fatigue, the safety machinery and exposure to toxic substances (including pesticides).

Article 27(g) of the Convention. The Committee notes from the annual report that in 1994 and 1995 there were no reports on occupational diseases in the agricultural industry. Referring also to its general observation under the Convention, the Committee hopes that the new system will help to improve the reporting on occupational diseases. It requests the Government to provide information on developments in this regard.
