CMNT_TITLE

The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that the next report will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous comments.

Repetition

Article 4 of the Convention. Standards for certificates of competency. The Committee notes the Government’s indication in its report that there are around 600 artisanal fishers in the country, organized in five cooperatives. The Government adds that fishers in Djibouti do not currently have a competency certificate and that the country does not have legislation giving effect to the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to provide information on any measures adopted or envisaged to give effect to the Convention.

CMNT_TITLE

The Committee notes the Government’s indication that the situation has not changed since its last report. It recalls, in this regard, the Government’s statement in earlier reports that the fishing sector is practically non-existent in the country. The Committee once again observes that, in light of the absence of a fishing industry, the Convention is in essence without object and therefore regular reporting on its application serves little purpose. The Committee accordingly requests the Government to keep the Office informed of any possible future developments that might significantly affect the application of the Convention in either law or practice.

CMNT_TITLE

The Committee notes that the Government’s report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government, in particular the indication that Djibouti has, presently, only one vessel of 229.9 tons engaged in cabotage. Given the circumstances, the Committee considers it unnecessary to comment at this point on the application of the Convention in either law or practice.

The Committee asks the Government to keep it informed in future reports of any significant changes with regard to the application of this Convention.
