It notes, in particular, the agreement reached in the tripartite meeting with the participation of representatives of the National Naval Prefecture, the Chamber of the Merchant Marine and the Inter-Union of Workers - National Convention of Workers (PIT-CNT), convened in October 1992, to establish as soon as possible a tripartite administrative committee in order to give effect to Articles 4 and 5 of the Convention.
