Convention (n° 73) sur l'examen médical des gens de mer, 1946 - Guinée - Bissau (Ratification: 1977)

Article 5 of the Convention. Medical certificate. With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its report to the effect that Decree No. 45.969 of 15 October 1964 is still applicable. The Committee also notes the Government’s indication that the legislation providing that medical certificates are valid for three months is not available at the moment and will be transmitted to the Office as soon as possible. The Committee reminds the Government that according to section 187(6) of Decree No. 45.969 of 15 October 1964 medical certificates are valid for two years. It therefore requests the Government to indicate which of these periods of validity for medical certificates is applicable.
