Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1992, Publicación: 79ª reunión CIT (1992)

The Committee notes with interest the text of the Regulations respecting harbour masters' offices and maritime, fluvial and lacustrian activities of 1987. It notes, however, that these Regulations do not contain express provisions concerning the shipowner's liability to provide, at his own expense, board and lodging to sick or injured seamen, as required by Article 3(b) of the Convention and as was provided for in the previous Regulations of 1951 (section 664(b)). The Committee therefore would be grateful if the Government would indicate, in its next report, how effect is given in the national legislation to this provision of the Convention. The Committee also asks the Government to continue to provide information on the implementation of the Convention supplying, in particular, the texts of any amendments to the above Regulations.
