text: 350 Regarding other sources: The authors of the DG EMPL Evaluation did not consider the National 
  Implementation Reports (due every five years by each Member State on each directive) as relevant for their 
  study:*‘In this context, one relevant conclusion is that the attempt to map the findings of the National*
  *Implementation Reports has yielded no result. The reporting requirements of the National Implementation Reports*
  *have proven to be formulated too broadly to facilitate quantifications of the replies across MSs or to allow for*
  *comparability*.’ 
  For this Status Report, SLIC evaluations of the labour inspection systems in Member States were not taken into 
  account, because most of them are confidential.

  *for instance, seen in the very detailed and specific requirements included in the annexes of some Directives.*
