The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that the next report will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous comments.
Repetition
Articles 2 to 6 of the Convention. Seafarers’ identity documents. The Committee previously requested the Government to indicate whether any regulations under section 143 of the Merchant Shipping Act of 2001 (No. 13), had been adopted in relation to the issuing of seafarers’ cards. The Committee notes the Government’s indication in its report that such regulations have been outlined but that no card is currently being issued. The Committee requests the Government to indicate the measures taken or envisaged to give effect to the requirements laid down in the Convention.
The Committee recalls that the Convention has been revised by the Seafarers’ Identity Documents Convention (Revised), 2003 (No. 185). It draws the Government’s attention to its general observation addressing the recent amendments to the annexes of Convention No. 185.
