The Committee notes that the labour protection legislation adopted recently continues to give effect to the provisions of the Convention. It draws the Government’s attention to the following point.
Article 7 of the Convention. Statistics on lead poisoning among working painters. The Committee notes the adoption of Order No. 188 of the Minister of Health (OMS), of 23 February 2004, establishing the National Operational Scheme for Occupational Diseases and the National Centre for Methodological Coordination and Information on Occupational Diseases. It notes that under section 4(1) of the Order, the responsibility for compiling statistical information on occupational diseases is vested with the National Centre for Methodological Coordination and Information. The Committee requests the Government to indicate whether, in accordance with Article 7 of the Convention, the Centre has already established statistics on cases of morbidity and mortality resulting from lead poisoning among working painters and, if so, it requests to provide them. It hopes that the next report will contain the statistics required under Article 7 of the Convention.
