Article 5, paragraph 2, of the Convention. With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes that, according to the Government's report it is planned to amend the Regulations on Harbourmasters and Maritime, River and Lake Activity, so that the seaman's record book which is provided for in the said Regulations, contains no statement as to the quality of his work. It hopes that, with its next report, the Government will be able to provide a specimen of the record book thus amended.
Article 6, paragraph 3(8) and (11). The Committee notes that the Government has not indicated in its report the measures taken to ensure that the articles of agreement specify the list of provisions supplied to the seaman and the annual leave with pay granted him, in accordance with national law. It reiterates the hope that, in its next report, the Government will provide a copy of a contract so modified.
Article 9, paragraphs 1 and 2. The Committee notes that it is planned to amend the Regulations on Harbourmasters so that a seafarer who has concluded an agreement for an indefinite period may disembark in any port where the vessel loads or unloads, after an agreed notice period, as required by the Convention. The Committee hopes that the Government will be able to indicate in its next report that the above-mentioned amendments have been introduced and that they will take account of the provisions of paragraph 2 of this Article (notice to be given in writing and national law to specify the manner of giving notice to preclude any subsequent dispute between the parties).
