The Committee notes the Government’s report. It wishes to draw the Government’s attention to the following point.

Article 7 of the Convention. Statistics. The Committee again notes the Government’s information to the effect that the labour statistical services are practically inoperative and therefore no reliable statistics exist enabling an evaluation of the application of the Convention in practice. The Government adds that there have been no plans to obtain statistics on lead poisoning. The Committee therefore reminds the Government that, under Article 7 of the Convention, statistics on lead poisoning among working painters must be drawn up with regard to morbidity and mortality. In this regard, it recalls that any government which has ratified the present Convention undertakes to apply it by means of legislation, codes of practice or other appropriate measures. The Committee therefore hopes that the Government will take the necessary measures to ensure the collection of data required by Article 7 of the Convention, in order to give full effect to the present provision.
