Articles 7, 8 and 9 of the Convention. Professional experience required. Further to its previous comment, the Committee notes the adoption of Order No. 238 CM of 25 February 2011 amending joint State/Territory Order No. 235 of 9 March 1989 concerning conditions for the exercise of command and officers’ duties on board commercial and fishing vessels in French Polynesia. It also notes the Government’s indications that requirements regarding professional experience must be modified in order to comply with the provisions of the Convention. According to the Government’s report, a comprehensive reform of the rules concerning the qualifications required for exercising command of fishing vessels is being undertaken by the Polynesian Directorate of Maritime Affairs. The Committee hopes that all the provisions of the Convention, including with regard to professional experience required, will be fully implemented in the context of the planned reform and requests the Government to keep the Office informed of any new developments in this area. The Government is also requested to send a copy of Order No. 238 CM.

Part V of the report form. Application in practice. The Committee notes the information sent by the Government concerning the composition of the fishing fleet registered on the territory of French Polynesia and the number of fishers by age group. The Committee requests the Government to continue to supply information on the application of the Convention in practice, especially regarding any infringements of the provisions of the Convention recorded by the labour inspectorate and the corrective measures taken.
