Repetition The Committee notes the information contained in the Government’s report and the attached legislation, including, in particular, Ordinance No. 53 of 2 July 2004 on Labour Conditions and Security in Ports and Ordinance No. 12 of 30 December 2005 on Safe and Healthy Working Conditions in the context of loading and unloading activities which provide for a continued application of the Convention.Part V of the report form. The Committee notes the statistical information provided by the Government regarding labour accidents that occurred during cargo treatment in 2005 and that one labour accident resulted in death; two accidents resulted in permanent incapacity for work; and 52 accidents resulted in a temporary incapacity for work. The Committee requests the Government to indicate measures taken to address the accidents recorded and to provide statistical information covering longer periods of time, for example five years, to enable it better to assess the development of the application of the Convention in practice.The Committee also takes this opportunity to recall that the Governing Body of the ILO has invited the parties to Convention No. 32 to consider ratifying Convention No. 152, which revised Convention No. 32 (GB.268/LILS/5 (Rev.1), paragraphs 99–101). Such ratification would automatically entail an immediate denunciation of Convention No. 32. The Committee also wishes to bring to the Government’s attention the ILO code of practice in this area, Safety and health in ports, Geneva, 2005. This code of practice is available, inter alia, through the ILO’s website by following the link, www.ilo.org/public/english/protection/safework/cops/english/index.htm. The Government is requested to keep the Office informed of any developments in this respect.
