Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes the replies provided by the Government in its report for the period ending on 31 May 2001.

Size of the inspection staff and the number of inspection visits (Articles 10 and 16 of the Convention). The Committee notes the information provided by the Government according to which, in the context of the employment law of 2000, 25 inspectors of industrial relations have conducted 1,332 visits to 1,106 enterprises, which is only 2 per cent of the enterprises that are liable to inspection. The Committee notes, however, that in statistical bulletins and in an annual report of the Department of Occupational Safety and Health of the Ministry of Labour, it is indicated that 14,268 visits were made under the Factories Act. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate the number of inspectors working in the Department of Occupational Safety and Health and provide all useful clarifications as to the reasons for the low level of coverage by the inspection services under the Employment Act.

Publication and transmission to the ILO of an annual report of inspection. The Committee notes that no labour inspection reports have been transmitted since 1997. It requests the Government to take the necessary measures to ensure that such report is published and transmitted within the time limits fixed by Article 20 and that it contains the information required by Article 21(a) to (g) of the Convention.
