The Committee notes that in spite of the comments it has been making for several years and the information supplied previously by the Government that the Regulations on Navigation at Sea and on Inland Waterways of 1992, adopted under the Labour Act of 1990, was being revised to bring it into conformity with the Convention, the legislation does not yet contain provisions giving effect to the Convention regarding Article 3; Article 6, paragraph 3; Article 8; Article 9, paragraph 1; Article 13, paragraph 1; and Article 14, paragraph 2. The Committee recalls, on this subject, that for many years it has commented on similar provisions in the national legislation, and that the Government has indicated since 1978 that the Committee responsible for drafting regulations governing work on board national merchant shipping vessels was going to take the provisions of the Convention into consideration. The Committee, therefore, urges the Government to take the necessary measures as soon as possible to give effect in national law to these provisions of the Convention, taking into consideration, in this regard, the comments the Committee is also making in a direct request.
