1. Publication of an annual report. The Committee notes the report on the application of the labour legislation and the situation with regard to occupational safety in industry in 2003 which, it notes, contains the statistics required under Article 21 of the Convention. The Committee notes the indication that this report is published in the review "Occupational safety and social protection". It requests the Government to provide future editions of this publication which reproduces the annual report, in accordance with Article 20 of the Convention.

It requests the Government to supply more detailed information on all measures taken or envisaged to ensure that the salaries and employment conditions of labour inspectors are sufficiently attractive to ensure the recruitment and maintenance in the profession of competent staff enjoying the required independence (Articles 6 and 7 of the Convention), as well as furnishing the material resources necessary for the performance of their duties (Article 11).
