Repetition

Article 10 of the Convention. Implementing legislation. The Committee notes the Government’s statement that it is currently in the process of ratifying the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 (MLC, 2006), and that it is therefore prevented from reporting on the application of the present Convention. The Government reports that a gap analysis of the national maritime legislation has already been completed with the assistance of the Office and that the MLC, 2006, is now pending tabling in the Popular National Assembly. The Committee recalls, in this regard, that the main provisions of this Convention have been incorporated into Regulation 2.4 and the corresponding Code of the MLC, 2006, and therefore ensuring compliance with the Convention would facilitate compliance with the corresponding requirements of the MLC, 2006. Recalling the Government’s indication in previous reports that the Convention was given only partial effect by the General Labour Act of 1986 as no specific law had been adopted on maritime labour, the Committee requests the Government to indicate any legislative amendments undertaken to fully implement the provisions of the Convention, and to transmit a copy of any new legal text which may not have been previously communicated to the Office. The Committee also requests the Government to keep the Office informed of any further developments regarding the process of ratification and effective implementation of the MLC, 2006.
