Repetition Article 1(3) of the Convention. Scope of application. The Committee takes note of the Government’s indication that it has initiated the ratification process of the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 (MLC, 2006), and that it is, consequently, unable to report on the application of the present Convention. The Government indicates that a comparative analysis of the MLC, 2006, and national legislation was carried out with the Office’s assistance, and that the MLC, 2006, is currently before the Popular National Assembly for consideration. The Committee further notes that, in its earlier reports, the Government had declared that it had not adopted legislation giving effect to the Convention, and that only certain provisions adopted during the colonial period remained in force. The Committee draws the Government’s attention to the fact that the provisions of Convention No. 92 have essentially been reproduced in Regulation 3.2, Standard A3.2 and Guideline B3.2 of the MLC, 2006, and therefore the application of the provisions of Convention No. 68 would facilitate the implementation of the corresponding provisions of the MLC, 2006. The Committee expresses the hope that legislation giving effect to the different provisions of the Convention will soon be adopted and requests the Government to keep the Office informed of any development, with regard to the ratification process and the effective implementation of the MLC, 2006.
