The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the following matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

The Committee takes note of the information provided by the Government in reply to its earlier comments.

Article 3, paragraphs 2 and 3, of the Convention. The Committee notes, in particular, statistical information concerning occupational categories of registered dock workers. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would indicate, in its next report, the manner in which registered dock workers are assured priority of engagement for dock work and are required to make themselves available for work. It also asks the Government to continue to provide particulars of the numbers of dock workers (including those in Zanzibar) on the registers maintained in accordance with this Article and of variations in their numbers during the period covered by the report, in accordance with point V of the report form.

Article 4. The Government indicates that the number of dock workers will be undoubtedly affected as a result of the introduction of high technology facilities. It states that the review of the registers is conducted in such a way that the needs of the ports are met and detrimental effects on dock workers through redundancies, lay-offs, etc., are minimized. Please describe in more detail the measures instituted to prevent or minimize detrimental effects on dock workers of a reduction in the strength of registers, and the criteria and procedures laid down for the implementation of these measures.

Article 5. The Committee takes note of the information in the Government's report concerning cooperation between employers and workers through high-level meetings (e.g. the Master Workers' Council). Please state whether any measures have been taken to encourage further cooperation between employers or their organizations, on the one hand, and workers' organizations, on the other hand, in improving the efficiency of work in ports.
