Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1993, Publicación: 80ª reunión CIT (1993)

Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes from the Government's report that the review of the Merchant Marine Code, referred to for several years as the occasion to adopt legislative minimum age requirements for the issuance of a certificate of competency for a skipper, a mate and an engineer as required by Article 6, paragraph 1, of the Convention, has not taken place. It hopes that the Government will take the necessary measures, pending the more general review of the Merchant Marine Code, to put the legislation as well as the practice regarding the minimum age for issuance of a certificate into conformity with the requirements of the Convention.

[The Government is asked to report in detail for the period ending 30 June 1994.]
