Article 1(c) of the Convention. Disciplinary measures applicable to seafarers. In its previous comments, the Committee firmly hoped that section 153 of the Merchant Shipping Act as amended in 2015, would be reviewed in light of the Convention, with a view to ensuring that no sanction involving an obligation to perform work may be imposed as a disciplinary measure applicable to seafarers. The Committee notes that the Merchant Shipping Act has been amended by the Merchant Shipping (Amendment) Act, 2019 (Act 3 of 2020). The Committee notes with satisfaction that the penalties established for the infringement of section 153 (persistent and wilful neglect of duty, disobedience of lawful commands or impeding of the navigation of the ship) are now limited to fines.

The Committee is raising other matters in a request addressed directly to Government.
