1. Article 1(a) of the Convention. Definition of discrimination. The Committee once again notes the Government’s statement that there have been no legislative amendments with respect to seafarers and that there is no discrimination on the grounds of ethnicity, sex, age or status between national and foreign seafarers. The Committee hopes the Government will ensure that no discrimination exists in practice on any of the grounds listed in the Convention.

The Committee requests the Government to send copies of the collective agreements for its consideration of the application of the Convention.

3. Part V of the report form. Statistical information. The Committee reiterates its requests that the Government provide statistical information on the nationalities of crews on ships registered in the Territories and the wage levels applied.
