The Committee notes with concern that the Government’s report has not been received. It expects that the next report will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous comments initially made in 2010.

Repetition

Articles 2 and 4 of the Convention. Form and content of seafarers’ identity documents. Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes the Government’s statement that the ministerial regulations provided for in sections 130(1) and 131(1) of the Shipping Act 2004, setting the form and content of seafarers’ identity cards and seafarers’ discharge books, have not so far been issued. The Committee requests the Government to provide a specimen of the seafarers’ identity card currently in use. It also requests the Government to transmit a copy of any relevant regulations as soon as they are adopted.

Articles 5 and 6. Readmission and permission to enter into territory. As no relevant information was ever made available to the Office on these points, the Committee requests the Government to specify the legislative or regulatory provisions that give effect to the seafarers’ right to return (Article 5) and also to the principle of free admission for purposes of temporary shore leave, transit or transfer (Article 6).
