The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation, which read as follows:

In reply to the Committee’s previous comments, the Government states in its last report that the texts to implement Act No. 212/AN/82 issuing the Shipping Code have not been adopted, so there is still no sickness insurance scheme for seafarers. The Government adds that it undertakes to provide information on any measures envisaged to bring the national legislation into line with the provisions of the Convention. The Committee takes note of this information and of the information sent subsequently by the Government indicating that very few seafarers are registered in Djibouti and that they are subject to the general sickness insurance scheme. In this connection, the Committee notes from the information sent by the Government on the application of Convention No. 24, that the Social Protection Body (OPS) has no sickness insurance branch able to provide the protection for seafarers laid down in the Convention. In these circumstances, the Committee again expresses the hope that the Government will be able to provide information in its next report on the adoption of measures denoting real progress in the establishment of a sickness insurance scheme for seafarers which will ensure that they enjoy protection in accordance with that established in the Convention.

The Committee hopes that the Government will make every effort to take the necessary action in the very near future.
