Article 1 of the Convention. Scope of application. The Committee recalls that section 26 of Act No. 96-151 of 26 February 1996 concerning transport permitted the registration, within the jurisdiction of the French Southern and Antarctic Territories (TAAF), of commercial vessels, fishing boats and pleasure craft. However, under section 34 of Act No. 2005-412 of 3 May 2005 concerning the establishment of the French International Register, section 26 of the abovementioned Act of 1996 became inapplicable to commercial vessels as from two years following the publication of the aforementioned Act of 2005 and, on expiry of this period, vessels still registered in the TAAF were to be registered in the French International Register. Moreover, the Committee notes the Government’s indication that the fleet registered in the TAAF now consists solely of a few fishing vessels, to which the Convention is not applicable pursuant to Article 1(2)(f) thereof. In the light of the above, the Committee observes that the Convention is currently without object in the territory of the TAAF and requests the Government to keep the Office informed of any legislative changes made in this respect.
