The Committee notes from the information supplied by the Government in its report that work on the new draft legislation is under way and that the Committee's comments will be submitted to the legal office of the Ministry of Transport and Communications.

1. The Committee hopes that the new legislation will provide, in accordance with Article 1, paragraph 1, of Convention, that any package or object of 1,000 kg or more gross weight consigned for transport by sea or inland waterway shall have its gross weight plainly and durably marked upon it on the outside before it is loaded.

The Committee hopes that the new text will be adopted in the very near future and requests the Government to supply a copy of it.

2. The Committee refers once again to its general observation of 1987 (see International Labour Conference, 73rd Session, Report III, Part A, p. 86) and requests the Government to supply detailed information in its next report on the manner in which the Convention is applied to containers in both national law and in practice.
