The Committee notes the information in the Government’s report and reverts to its previous comments on the application of the Convention.

Article 5, paragraphs 1 and 2, and Article 14, paragraph 1.   The Committee notes from the Government’s report that it is aware that sections 42, 47 and 408 of the Federal Labour Act do not give effect to the provisions of the Convention as to recording the reason for discharge in the seaman’s service book and issuing a separate certificate concerning quality of work/discharge of obligations.

The Committee further notes from the Government’s report that a draft discharge book (Libreta de Navegación) is being prepared. It requests the Government to report on developments in this regard and to send a specimen when this is issued.

Article 7.  The Committee renews its request to the Government to indicate the legislative or regulatory texts which give full effect to this Article.
