Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 1996, publiée 85ème session CIT (1997)

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the following matters raised in the previous direct request:

The Committee notes with interest that the General Directorate of the Merchant Navy is planning to reform the occupational safety regulations applicable to ports and has undertaken to carry out a complete revision of the manual on safety standards and the prevention of risks to which port workers are exposed, taking into consideration each of the comments made by the Committee, with a view to bringing the national legislation which is applicable in this respect into conformity with international standards.

The Committee requests the Government to supply copies of the revised regulations, when they have been adopted, and the revised text of the manual, and to indicate in its next report, for each of the provisions of the Convention, the corresponding measures which have been taken at the national level.
