Articles 26 and 27 of the Convention. Annual reports on labour inspection in agriculture. The Committee notes that, contrary to the Government’s indications, the annual labour inspection report for 2010 has not been attached to the Government’s report. It further notes the Government’s indication that the annual reports of the Norwegian Labour Inspection Authority contain separate information on the number of labour inspection visits in agriculture. Contrary to the Government’s indications, the annual labour inspection report for 2010 has not been attached to the Government’s report. Following up on its comments since 2000 in this regard, the Committee would like to emphasize that the information contained therein should not be limited to the number of inspection visits in agriculture, but that reports should deal with all the subjects covered by Article 27(a)–(g) of the Convention. In this context, the Committee notes that the register of workplaces used at the labour inspectorate since the mid-1990s, which contains data on inspection visits, and which it understands is shared by the different agencies entrusted with inspection functions in different areas, is expected to become a better working tool and offer more comprehensible statistics for the assessment of labour inspection activities, following further technical development in 2012. The Committee hopes that the improvement of the national register will result in the fulfilment of the reporting obligations of the Government under the abovementioned Articles. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on the progress made in the publication by the central inspection authority of an annual report on the work of the labour inspection services in agriculture, either as a separate report, or as part of its general annual report, containing the information required in Article 27(a)–(g) of the Convention. It further asks the Government to regularly send these annual reports to the ILO, in accordance with Article 26 of the Convention.
