Articles 2 to 6 of the Convention. Seafarers’ identity documents. In reply to the Committee’s previous comment, the Government indicates that there has been no change in the legislation and that the Regulations on the procedure for issuance of a Seafarers’ Identity Card are being drafted. The Committee requests the Government to report on any progress made in this regard and to transmit a copy of the new regulations and procedure, once adopted. It further requests the Government to provide a specimen of the seafarers’ identity document once it has been issued.

The Committee further notes the Government’s indication that the option of including the requirements of the Seafarers’ Identity Documents Convention (Revised), 2003, as amended (No. 185) in the procedures is being explored. The Committee recalls that, in the framework of the Standards Review Mechanism, the ILO Governing Body, as recommended by the Special Tripartite Committee on the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006, as amended (MLC, 2006), classified Convention No. 108 as “outdated”. In this context, the Committee requests the Government to provide information on any developments regarding the eventual ratification of Convention No. 185 and reminds the Government of the possibility to avail itself of the technical assistance of the Office.
