Further to its previous comments, the Committee notes the Government's statement that the Ministry of Equipment for Transportation and Tourism has developed a draft law pertaining to modernization of transports which would provide greater security in law to seamen on board ships registered in the French Southern and Antarctic Territories. The Committee notes this information and hopes that this law will be adopted in the near future and will unambiguously ensure that the provisions of the Convention are fully applied in the French Southern and Antarctic Territories. The Committee would appreciate receiving a copy of the law once it is adopted.
