Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2002, publiée 91ème session CIT (2003)

The Committee takes note of the report supplied by the Government.

The Committee had previously requested the Government to supply the list of essential services so that it could examine its conformity with the Convention. It regrets that this information was not submitted and requests the Government once again to supply the list of essential services as adopted by the Cabinet of Ministers.

As regards the right to strike of seafarers, the Committee takes note of the Maritime Service Act provided by the Government, but further notes that no specific mention is made to the right to strike. Taking due note once again of the Government’s indication that seafarers enjoy the right to strike when they are at dock, the Committee requests the Government to indicate the relevant legislative provision of the Act which ensures this right to this category of workers.
