The Committee notes the reports provided by the Government on the application of Conventions Nos 113, 114, 125 and 126 respecting the fishing sector. In order to provide an overview of matters arising in relation to the application of these Conventions, the Committee considers it appropriate to examine them in a single comment, as follows.

Medical Examination (Fishermen) Convention, 1959 (No. 113) Fishermen ’ s Articles of Agreement Convention, 1959 (No. 114) Accommodation of Crews (Fishermen) Convention, 1966 (No. 126)

The Committee notes the Government’s indication that the national legislation implementing Conventions Nos 113, 114 and 126 has been amended with a view to the transposition of Council Directive (EU) 2017/159 of 19 December 2016 implementing the Agreement concerning the implementation of the Work in Fishing Convention, 2007 of the International Labour Organisation. The Government adds that the procedure for the ratification of Convention No. 188 is still under way. The Committee takes note of this information.

Fishermen ’ s Competency Certificates Convention, 1966 (No. 125)

Articles 6 to 9 of the Convention. Minimum age and minimum experience required. In reply to its previous comment, the Government refers to the Act of 12 June 2020 on work in fishing, and the two royal orders implementing Council Directive (EU) 2017/159 of 19 December 2016 implementing the Agreement concerning the implementation of the ILO Work in Fishing Convention, 2007 of the International Labour Organisation. The Committee takes note of this information.
Article 15. Penalties. The Committee notes the Act of 25 December 2016 establishing administrative fines applicable in the event of offences under maritime laws, which has been provided by the Government. The Committee notes that the Act does not provide for penalties applicable to persons obtaining by fraud or forged documents an engagement to perform duties requiring certification without holding the requisite certificate. The Committee therefore requests the Government to indicate the national provisions that have been adopted or are envisaged to give effect to Article 15 of the Convention.
