The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

The Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate any development concerning the establishment and operation of the labour inspection system in agriculture and provide the information required by the report form under the provisions of the Convention.

With reference also to its general observation of 1999 concerning the role of labour inspection in combating the abuse of child labour, the Committee notes with interest that, under the terms of section 5 of Deliberation No. 266-CP of 17 April 1998, issuing various social provisions, the authorization of the labour inspector is required for the engagement of young workers aged between 14 and 16 years; the inspector has the authority, within a specified time limit, to oppose or to propose changes to the terms and conditions of employment, or at any moment to withdraw his authorization where it is established that the conditions are no longer in conformity with those required by the authorization. The Committee hopes that the Government will be able to ensure that an annual report on the activities of the inspection services in the agricultural sector is published and transmitted to the ILO in accordance with Article 26 of the Convention and that it will contain detailed information on the matters set out in Article 27, including inspection activities relating to child labour.
