Articles 14 and 21(f) and (g) of the Convention. Further to its earlier comments, the Committee notes with interest that, under the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act, 1989, a new National Authority for Occupational Safety and Health was established and that it expected to develop proposals for the notification of occupational accidents and diseases in relation to all work covered by the Act. The Committee hopes the next report will indicate how full effect is given to these provisions of the Convention.

Article 20 of the Convention. The Committee notes with interest that section 26 of the 1989 Act provides for the Authority to make a report on its activities to the Minister for laying before the legislature within six months of the end of each year. It trusts this will enable the Government to comply with the requirements of this Article as to publication and transmittal to the Office of the report.
