Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1997, published 86th ILC session (1998)

Article 14, paragraph 1, of the Convention, and Part III of the report form. The Committee notes with interest the information supplied by the Government on the awarding of competency certificates in practice. It again expresses the hope that the Government will also provide information on the organization and functioning of the inspectorate since an efficient inspection system makes it possible to check that skippers, mates or engineers on board fishing vessels are properly qualified.
