The Committee recalls that, since 2006, the Government had been reiterating that the conditions for implementing the Convention did not exist, Afghanistan being a landlocked country without any dock or industrial harbour. The Committee notes the Government’s statement that with the opening of Iran’s Port of Chah Bahar in the Sea of Oman, new perspective has emerged on the country’s access to navigable waterways. Consequently, the Government anticipates that the Convention will begin to have greater relevance, enabling it to report on effect given to its provisions. The Committee notes this statement and requests the Government to provide information on any development in this respect, including the development of industrial harbours within the country’s navigable waterways entailing the use of dock work and a national policy to provide dockworkers with regular or permanent employment.
