The Committee previously noted the Government’s indication that a new system in ports ensured the safety of workers employed in loading and unloading of containers and that the relevant sectoral body had stated that measures were taken with respect to marking cargo as prescribed by the Convention. The Committee requested the Government to provide information on the manner in which the Convention was applied in law and in practice in the context of the difficult situation faced by the country. The Government indicated in its report, received in 2018, that it would provide this information as soon as it receives it from the relevant sectoral body. The Committee trusts the Government will be able to provide in the near future specific information relating to the measures taken for the application of the Convention, including on any difficulties encountered in this regard.
