Legislation. The Committee notes the instructions on occupational safety for dockers and dock engineers at the main cargo terminal attached to the Government’s report. The Committee once again requests the Government to submit a copy of the Occupational Safety Regulations for Sea Ports approved by the Order of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) Ministry of Shipping of 10 July 1987 (RD 31.82.03-87) (1987 Safety Regulations), together with other relevant pieces of legislation, if possible, in one of the working languages of the ILO.

Articles 3(5) and 11(1)–(7), (9) of the Convention. Scope of application and provisions regarding loading operations in paragraphs 1–7 and 9. The Committee notes that, according to the Government’s report, competent authorities have not made any exceptions to Article 3(5). The Government also indicates that the national legislation does not provide for any exceptions under which hoisting gear can be loaded beyond the safe working load to the extent to which this is permitted. The Committee requests the Government to continue to provide any relevant information in this respect.

Article 18. Mutual recognition of arrangements made in their respective countries for testing, examining and annealing and of certificates and records relating thereto. The Committee notes that, according to the Government’s report, there are no reciprocal arrangements in place on the mutual certificates and records. The Committee requests the Government to continue to provide any relevant information in this respect.

Part V of the report form. Application in practice. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that there is no statistical data available on the number of workers to whom legislation applies, including on the implementation of the Convention. The Committee hopes that the Government will be able to supply relevant information to provide a complete picture of the application of the Convention in the country, for instance on the number, nature and causes of accidents reported etc.
