Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 2000, Publicación: 89ª reunión CIT (2001)

The Committee notes the Government’s report for the period ending in July 1999. It notes with interest that the Government has adopted Ordinance No. 22/1999 on port administration and port services in order to give full effect to the provisions of the Convention.

Noting that section 37 of the above Ordinance establishes that reserve personnel entitled to the compensation provided for in section 36 shall be dismissed after 90 days’ payment of the compensation, the Committee asks the Government to indicate whether, in practice, these workers are struck from the registers kept by employment and vocational training agencies and to describe in detail the measures taken pursuant to the provisions of Article 4(2) of the Convention, to minimize the detrimental effects on dock workers of the reduction in strength of registers. The Government is also asked to supply information on how effect is given in practice to Article 6, particularly with regard to vocational training for dockers which comes in the purview of employment and vocational training agencies pursuant to sections 22 and 23 of the abovementioned Ordinance No. 22.

With reference to the information requested under Part V of the report form, the Committee asks the Government to provide particulars of the implementation in practice of Ordinance No. 22/1999 including, for instance and as far as possible, extracts from reports by the abovementioned employment agencies concerning the number of dockers on their registers and any changes.
