The Committee notes the comments made by the Netherlands Trade Union Federation (FNV) expressing doubts as to the capability of the labour inspectorate and calling for the extension of qualified industrial health care and safety services in undertakings. In this regard, the Goverment has indicated that there will be a strengthening of the Factory Inspectorate's policy and that an effort is being made to improve the efficiency of the Factory Inspectorate, so as to enhance capacity while considering expansion.

The Committee asks the Government to provide in future reports full information on the efforts made to improve the operation of the inspection services and, in particular, with respect to adequate training of inspectors (Article 7(3) of the Convention) and adequate strength (Article 10).

Article 21 of the Convention. The Committee notes that the Government's annual labour inspection reports do not contain complete information on: Article 21(a): laws and regulations relevant to the work of the inspection service; Article 21(b): staff of the labour inspection service; Article 21(g): statistics of occupational diseases. With respect to the last item, the Committee notes the Government's indication that the data cannot be supplied in full since collecting data concerning occupational diseases is rather complicated. The Committee nevertheless hopes that further efforts will be made in this regard in the light of the first paragraph above.
