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

The Committee is once again bound, as it has done for a number of years, to draw the Government’s attention to the need to establish in the country a compulsory sickness insurance scheme applicable to seafarers employed on board vessels, other than ships of war, carrying out maritime navigation or sea-fishing, in accordance with the provisions of the Convention. The special compulsory sickness insurance scheme for seafarers, which must be established pursuant to the Maritime Affairs Code of 1982, has never been established owing to the low number of seafarers in Djibouti; as to the general social protection scheme established by Act No. 135/AN/3ème of 1997 establishing the social protection body, it does not comprise a compulsory sickness insurance branch. In these circumstances, the Committee once again expresses the hope that the Government will be able, in its next report, to inform it of the adoption of measures constituting real progress concerning the establishment of a sickness insurance system applicable to seafarers that will guarantee them protection in conformity with that envisaged by the Convention.

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