Legal proceedings and penalties. The Committee notes the Government’s detailed report and the information it contains in response to its previous request. It notes that, according to the statistics provided for 2004, of the 263 cases communicated to the Office of the Prosecutor, none have led to the initiation of criminal proceedings. The Committee recalls the importance attached to the establishment and effective application of adequate penalties for violations of the legal provisions and for obstructing labour inspectors in the performance of their duties, in accordance with Article 18 of the Convention. It requests the Government to indicate in its next report the reasons why none of the cases transmitted to the office of the Prosecutor in 2004 led to criminal proceedings.
