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 matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

The Committee has taken note of the Government's reply to its previous comments and has noted that new legislation - of the draft of which was then being discussed - would take these comments into account so that national legislation could be aligned with the Convention.

The Committee hopes that the above draft will be adopted in the near future and that the new text will provide that the weight of any package or object of 1,000 kg or more gross weight shall be plainly and durably marked on the outside of the package or object in question (and not on the documents accompanying it), before it is loaded on a ship or vessel, as prescribed in Article 1, paragaraph 1, of the Convention.

The Committee also noted that, according to the Government's report for the period ended May 1987, the new legislation provided that the obligation for having the weight marked as aforesaid shall fall on the consignor.

The Committee requests the Government to keep it informed of any progress made in the adoption of this draft.

The Committee refers to the general observation on this Convention which it made last year (cf. International Labour Conference, 73rd Session, Report No. III, Part A, p. 86) and requests the Government to provide full particulars in its next report on the manner in which both statutory and practical effect are given to the Convention in respect of containers.
