Observation (CEACR) - adopted 1989, published 76th ILC session (1989)

Officers' Competency Certificates Convention, 1936 (No. 53) - Mauritania (Ratification: 1963)

Article 3 of the Convention. The Committee notes the Government's statement in reply to its previous observations, to the effect that the Department of Fisheries and Maritime Economy is already well-advanced in the general revision of the maritime legislation. It also notes the administrative difficulties mentioned in the report. The Committee hopes that provisions establishing the requirements for the award of competency certificates and the procedures for the approval by the Mauritanian authorities of certificates issued abroad will be adopted in the very near future. It once again requests the Government to supply a copy of this legislation as soon as it is available.
